Answer to Question 1

This is referred to as HIV wasting syndrome. Infections and other physical problems increase the metabolic rate and the nutrient and calorie needs. In addition, the appetite and the body's ability to absorb nutrients are decreased. Hypoalbuminemia and weight loss occur. The insufficient amounts of protein and calories damage the immune system and death soon follows.
