The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) has been discovered to be the cause of AIDS.
AIDS or Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome is caused by the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). HIV is a retrovirus which contains RNA as the genetic material.
HIV infection can be transmitted through:-
- sexual contact with an infected individual,
- transfusion of contaminated blood samples,
- sharing infected needles e.g. in the case of drug addicts who take the drug intravenously,
- infected pregnant woman to the fetus through placenta.
AIDS adversely affects the immune system of an infected individual. ELISA or enzyme linked immunosorbent assay test is used largely for diagnosing AIDS.

Hi,
By studying fossils, scientists can learn how life has changed over time, how earth's surface has changed and what past environments were like. Fossils form when living things die and are buried by sediment; they are usually found in Sedimentary rock. Only the hard parts of organisms generally leave fossils because the soft parts generally decay too quickly to fossilize. In case you didn't know, there are two types of fossils; rock fossils and preserved fossils.

<span>c) Fossils give information about the time period in which organisms lived in the past.
