Answer:

B) decreases.

Explanation:

    The HIV virus acts within the cells of the immune system, responsible for the body's defense. After entering the cell, HIV begins to act and integrate into the genetic code of the infected cell. The cells most affected by the virus are called T-CD4, which are used by HIV to make copies of itself.

    Each time this cell, when infected, divides, it produces a copy of its genetic code and, at the same time, a copy of the virus's genetic code.

    Infected by the virus, the cells of the immune system begin to function less efficiently until, over time, the body's ability to fight common diseases diminishes and is subject to the onset of opportunistic diseases.

Veronika [31]

Can evolution create new species over time through natural selection?

is the question he would be prompted to ask based on his voyage.

<h3>Who was Charles Darwin ?</h3>
  • English scientist Charles Darwin gained notoriety for his theory of natural selection, which postulated that organisms in an ecosystem adapt and evolve in order to maintain their survival.
  • Because of this, Darwin was inspired to consider whether natural selection can eventually result in the emergence of new species after studying the selective breeding of pigeons.
  • Darwin came to the following conclusion based on these straightforward observations:
  • In a population, some individuals would have hereditary qualities that assist them survive and reproduce (given the conditions of the environment, such as the predators and food sources present).

Nina [5.8K]

Answer: feed-back

When the product of a metabolic pathway accumulates, it may be able to slow down or turn off the pathway by inhibiting the activity of an enzyme that catalyzes an early step in the pathway. This is referred to as feed-back inhibition.

Explanation:

Feed-back inhibition is said to occur when the final product of a biochemical pathway signal the inactivation of the starting materials of the pathway.

For example: when pyruvate signal the inactivation of phosphofructokinase, the glycolytic pathway gets turned off.

PLEASE HELP ASAPPP !!! 15 POINTS !!!
sasho [114]

***see attached pic***

Some helpful tips:

The nucleus is always going to be the big, spherical shape.

The ER is always going to be a weird, folded looking structure attached to the nucleus (rough = has ribosomes on it which are usually represented by little dots, smooth = has no ribosomes on it aka no dots)

The GA looks like the ER but it is not going to be attached to the nucleus like the ER is.

The mitochondria is always going to be pill-shaped and have weird folds inside of it.
