Answer:

Three different ways in which antiretroviral drugs can prevent the formation of new viruses are:

  1. Inhibiting the reverse transcriptase enzyme in both nucleoside analogues and non-nucleoside analogues.
  2. Enzymatic inhibition of integrase enzymes.
  3. Inhibiting entry by antagonizing CCR5 co-receptors.  

Explanation:

Antiretroviral drugs are those used for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, making the effect of the virus on the host cell is less and preventing the development of AIDS.

This type of drug has been classified, according to their mechanism of action, being grouped into several families of drugs. Three different ways by which antiretroviral drugs can prevent the formation of virus are:

  1. <em><u>Inhibition of reverse transcriptase enzyme</u></em><em>: this enzyme is a DNA polymerase capable of forming single strand viral RNA by a process that is reverse to normal DNA to RNA transcription. Its inhibition prevents the formation of viral particles in the host cell. They are divided into nucleoside analogs and non-nucleoside analogs.</em>
  2. <em><u>Enzymatic Inhibition of Integrase enzymes</u></em><em>: this type of enzyme is contained in the virus, and is capable of causing a retrotranscribed DNA to integrate into the host cell's DNA so that viral replication occurs. Its inhibition prevents the replication process.</em>
  3. <em><u>Entry inhibitors or antagonists CCR5 co-receptors</u></em><em>: CCr5 is a membrane protein, found on the surface of CD4 T lymphocytes, which facilitates the entry of the virus into the cell. The drug acts as a competitive inhibitor of the viral particle, preventing the entry and infection of the host cell.</em>

The most effective treatments against HIV infection involve the use of two or more types of antiretroviral drugs.

Which action is important in the development of healthy social relationships? A. Sacrificing energy B. Being demanding of others
Rina8888 [55]

Your answer would be  A. Sacrificing energy.


Being demanding of others' time is not an attractive thing. You become too dominant and controlling. Being critical of others is rude, and many people wouldn't want to be your friend. Losing a sense of identity is bad for yourself. It can lower your self esteem, and negatively affect your mental health.


So, with that explanation, the most reasonable answer would be A.

A nurse is teaching a client with a vitamin B12 deficiency about appropriate food choices to increase the amount of B12 ingested
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

"I will eat a meat source such as chicken or pork with each meal."

Explanation:

Vitamin B12, or cobalamin, is one of eight B-complex vitamins. It is found only in animal foods (except honey), such as red meats, seafood, fish, eggs and milk, and is responsible for important functions in the body. Vitamin B12 deficiency is difficult to diagnose, but can cause serious conditions such as megaloblastic anemia and pernicious anemia. Specific groups in society, such as non-supplementary vegetarians and vegans and people over 50, are those most vulnerable to vitamin B12 deficiency.

Regarding the customer exposed in the question, the statement "I will eat a meat source such as chicken or pork with each meal." demonstrates that he is well informed and has correctly learned all the claims about vitamin B12.
