ventral

Answer to Question 2

The HIV combines with a host cell and injects RNA into the host cell. The viral RNA redirects cell functions to make copies of the virus. These then infect other cells. The host cell dies. HIV usually initially infests helper T cells, causing flu-like symptoms, and the body tries to get rid of the virus. Surviving HIVs enter a period of dormancy. During its reproductive phase, HIV invades and destroys mainly helper T cells. This results in a suppression of cell-mediated immunity, and the person becomes much more susceptible to opportunistic infections, many of which are deadly.
