nswer some of these questions: What is the definition of a pandemic? How does a pandemic differ from an endemic or epidemic? What is the life cycle of the HIV virus once it enters the body? How does the genetic code of the virus change? How does HIV affect the body? How do people become infected with HIV? How does AIDS develop from an HIV infection? What are the current infection rates of HIV across the globe? Where is HIV/AIDS most prevalent? What treatments are currently available for HIV/AIDS? Do some regions of the world have better access to treatments than others? What is the average life expectancy for someone with HIV? Does life expectancy differ around the globe? Now write four additional questions about HIV/AIDS that could help strengthen your argument in the presentation.

Answer:

A pandemic is an epidemic disease extended across wide regions, thereby affecting many countries and even continents, while endemic diseases affect the people from only one country or a specific region. Human Immune Deficiency (HIV) is an RNA virus whose life cycle is composed of the following stages: 1) binding to the cell host and membrane fusion, 2) subsequent reverse transcription into DNA and integration into genome host 3) proliferation (i.e., successive replication cycles) by using the cellular machinery of the host 4) new assembly and budding of the virus. The acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) occurs when the host immune system is seriously damaged by the HIV infection, this being the latest stage of infection. It is known that HIV/AIDS is more prevalent in the female population, while according to ethnic groups, it is more prevalent in African-American and Hispanic/Latino populations in the USA. The life expectancy in HIV-infected patients has notably improved in the last years and, currently, people with this disease can expect to live over 70 years or even more.

Andida albicans is part of our normal oral flora. Under certain conditions, it can overgrow, leading to oral thrush. Typically,
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

Opportunistic, endogenous pathogen

Explanation:

Opportunistic infection is an infection that is caused by the microbes that are otherwise the component of one's own normal microbiota.  Under particular conditions, the microbes become pathogenic and cause infection. The pathogen-derived from one's own microbiota is called endogenous pathogen.

According to the given information, <em>Candida albicans </em>is a part of the microflora of mouth but becomes pathogenic under certain conditions. In healthy individuals, they do not produce disease as their overgrowth is suppressed by other microbiota and other host resistance mechanisms. The infection occurs only in those individuals with predisposing factors such as weakened immune system or after consumption of antibacterial medications that disturb the normal microbiota and immune competency. This makes it an opportunistic, endogenous pathogen.

Svetlanka [38]

The right answer is B.

The answer B is the only proposition which specified at which stage the event must occur, in fact, the meiosis.

Meiosis is a characteristic division of reproductive cells that can generate gametes to form new species (desendence). So if a mutation occurs at this time (such as recombinations) it will inevitably be inherited.
