Answer: A) The resident populations are more likely affected by these threats because of their proximity to shore.
Explanation:
All of these threats are higher in coastal regions.
As contaminants usually reach the ocean through rivers or because of coastal cities, the highest degree of pollution is there. All chemicals will accumulate in this region first, before they disperse into the offshore region. This is also caused by the fact that the coastal waters have a lower volume and surface area than the offshore which results in a higher degree of contamination.
Answer:
Azidothymidine
Explanation:
Azidothymidine (AZT) is one of the nucleoside analogs that is used in the treatment of AIDS as it inhibits the process of reverse transcription of HIV (Human immunodeficiency virus).
The HIV replicates by making DNA copies of RNA through the process of reverse transcription. The process is driven by enzyme reverse transcriptase. Azidothymidine (AZT) serves to inhibit the activity of reverse transcriptase enzyme and thereby does not allow HIV to reproduce.
