components of the HIV life cycle. Identify the various HIV types and subtypes. Discuss HIV’s effects on the immune system. Overview The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a retrovirus belonging to the family of lentiviruses. Retroviruses can use their RNA and host DNA to make viral DNA and are known for their long incubation periods. Like other retroviruses‚ HIV infects the body‚ has a long incubation period (clinical latency)‚ and ultimately causes the signs and symptoms of disease‚ here AIDS. HIV causes

cell membranes (type of lipids)? Phospholipids and cholesterol make up cell membranes. 9. What are steroids? They are a type of hormone that can cross cell membrane directly into cells. 10. What is the function of steroids? Steroids are chemical messengers. 11. What are waxes and what is its function? Waxes are on leaves of plants to make them waterproof. 12. What are lipids composed of (structure)? Fats and oils; glycerol and 3 fatty acids. 13. What are the elements that lipids contain? Lipids

collect in the endoplasmic reticulum for transport throughout the cell. Ribosomes: Ribosomes are packets of RNA and protein that play a crucial role in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. They are the site of protein synthesis. Each ribosome comprises two parts‚ a large subunit and a small subunit. Messenger RNA from the cell nucleus is moved systematically along the ribosome where transfer RNA adds individual amino acid molecules to the lengthening protein

The information that is needed to repair itself is held in the DNA also but is mainly held in the Messenger RNA‚ which directs the synthesis of specific proteins that can help repair the body. E.

in the body. These viruses have been found many different animals including cats‚ sheep‚ cattle and horses A retrovirus is a virus which has a genome consisting of two RNA molecules‚ which may or may not be identical. It relies on the enzyme reverse transcriptase to perform the reverse transcription of its genome from RNA into DNA‚ which can then be integrated in the host‟s genome with an integrase enzyme.

The cell is the fundamental structural unit of all living organisms. Some cells are complete organisms‚ such as the unicellular bacteria and protozoa; others‚ such as nerve‚ liver‚ and muscle cells‚ are specialized components of multi-cellular organisms. Cells range in size from the smallest bacteria-like mycoplasmas‚ which are 0.1 micrometer in diameter‚ to the egg yolks of ostriches‚ which are about 8 cm (about 3 in) in diameter. Although they may differ widely in appearance and function‚ all cells
