How do the HIV/Aids pandemic statistics vary around the world?

Biology
1 answer:
Strike441 [17]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) causes AIDS (Autoimmune deficiency syndrome) and reduces the ability of body to fight infection.

HIV was first found in 1959 in a man from Democratic Republic of the Congo and then announced as a world pandemic by WHO.

Approximately 37.9 million people were infected with HIV globally in 2018 but the pandemic statistics vary around the world. Sub-Saharan Africa was most infected region from HIV in 2018 where 61% population was infected from HIV/AIDS. In South & South-East Asia, about 12% of all people infected with HIV in 2010.

Now WHO announced HIV as 'global epidemic".

Place the following events of muscle excitation in the correct order.
svetlana [45]

An motion potential in the presynaptic cell activates calcium channels. Ca+ triggers the discharge of Acetylcholine through exocytosis. Ach binds its receptors in the postsynaptic membrane, opening Na+ channels. The Order is 4, 3, 5, 1, 2.

The principal frightened system generates an motion potential that travels to the goal activating the calcium channels ⇒ event (4)

Calcium triggers vesicles fusion to the presynaptic membrane. By exocytosis, vesicles release the neurotransmitter -Acetylcholine- into the synaptic space ⇒ event (3)

Once there, Ach binds to its receptors on the postsynaptic membrane of the skeletal muscle fiber, causing ion channels to open ⇒ event (5)

Positively charged sodium ions move the membrane to get into the muscle fiber (sarcoplasm) and potassium leaves the cell ⇒ event (1)

The distinction in charges, resulting from these ions' transport, positively charges the fiber membrane. The postsynaptic cell depolarizes ⇒ Event (2)

The motion potential enters the t-tubules depolarizing the internal part of the muscle fiber. Contraction initiates while the motion potential depolarizes the internal part of the muscle fiber. Calcium channels spark off in the T tubules membrane, releasing calcium into the sarcolemma.

At this point, the muscle is at rest, and the tropomyosin is inhibiting the appeal strengths between myosin and actin filaments. Tropomyosin is obstructing binding sites for myosin on the skinny filament.

When calcium enters the sarcolemma, it binds to troponin C, and troponin T alters the tropomyosin role through shifting it and unblocking the binding sites.

Myosin heads be a part of the uncovered actin-binding points forming move-bridges, and whilst doing so, ATP turns into ADP and inorganic phosphate, that's released.

Myofilaments slide impulsed through chemical energy accumulated in myosin heads, generating a strength stroke. The strength stroke initiates while the myosin move-bridge binds to actin. As they slide, ADP molecules are released. A new ATP hyperlinks to myosin heads and breaks the bindings to the actin filament.

Then ATP splits into ADP and phosphate, and the energy produced is gathered in the myosin heads, which begins offevolved a new binding cycle to actin.

Finally, Z-bands are pulled towards every other, and the sarcomere and the I-band get shorter, generating muscle fiber contraction.

According to those steps, the appropriate order of activities is 4, 3, 5, 1, 2.

State the sructure of transpiration and guttation and both where the occur​
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

Transpiration is loss of water from the surface of leaves in the form of water vapour while guttation is exudation of water from the surface of leaves in the form of drops. Transpiration takes place through stomata while guttation takes place through hydathodes.

Guttation usually occurs at the margins and the tips of the leaves. Transpiration occurs throughout the general surface of the leaves and the young stems.
