 Answer:

Explanation:

According to the data shown in the graph, since 2000, the people living with HIV has been increased, but a decrease in the number of people newly infected with HIV.

The reason behind this can be early screening of the infection since 2000 and awareness among people decreasing the infection rate as well.

Hence, the correct option is A.

A new moon occurs once every 29.5 days. Why must the Sun, Earth, and the Moon be aligned in order for the new moon to occur

Answer:
