Answer:
Western blot should be performed
Explanation:
Generally ELISA test is sensitive to elevated antibodies levels in the blood. Because HIV infection is characterise with increases in antibodies levels(HIV-antibodies levels)of the body, it is usually the first screening test for HIV,however it is also sensitive to elevated antibody from any other infection apart from HIV. Therefore for confirmation, the procedure is to run a second ELISA test, to determine if the antibody rise was due to HIV or not. If the second test turns positive, then Western blot can be applied.
The Western blot through secondary and primary antibodies binding , separates the investigating antibodies, and identity the specif HIV antibodies present to give a positive HIV-antibody, confirming ELISA positive test.
Thus for confirmation of HIV specific antibodies of the blood; ELISA test followed by Western blot is ideal
Answer:
Ribose
Explanation:
DNA is a large molecule, a type of nucleic acid which store and act as a genetic material of the cell. DNA molecule is formed by the repeating monomer units called nucleotides.
Each nucleotide is made up of three subunits as:
1. 5-C sugar: De-oxyribose formed by the removal of oxygen group from 2' OH group of ribose. Ribose is the sugar molecule present in RNA nucleic acid.
2. Phosphate group (PO₄³⁻)
3. Nitrogenous bases: adenine, guanine, adenine and cytosine.
Thus, ribose is the correct answer.
When a cell undergoes meiosis,the outcome of the process is FOUR HAPLOID CELLS.
Meiosis refers to a form of cell division which always results in the formation of four daughter cells. The four daughters cells produce have diploid cells which contains half the original of chromosomes from the parents. A diploid cell has two of each chromosome, one from each parent. The eggs and the sperms that are involved in reproduction possess haploid cells. In meiosis, the whole process start with diploid cells which divide twice to produce four haploid cells.

Answer:
B) a sequence of three nucleotides
Explanation:
A codon is the sequence of three nucleotides that decide that which particular amino acid would be incorporated in the polypeptide chain. Each codon code for a particular amino acid and responsible for the primary structure of proteins.
During translation the transfer RNA have the anticodon on its one side and amino acid bound to it on its other side. It adds the amino acids to growing polypeptide chain by binding to particular codon on messenger RNA.
Example; AUG is the starting codon for every protein and code for methionine in eukaryotes and anticodon for it is UAC.
