Conclusion In this experiment I tested different light intensities. I tested a normal fluorescent light bulb‚ a 100-watt light bulb‚ a 25-watt light bulb‚ and a 15-watt light bulb. I was surprised to find that the control plant grew the most at 135 mm. The 100 watt plant grew the least at 0 mm due to the fact that it fried the plant.

AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome) is caused by HIV (human immunodeficiency virus). HIV is transmitted usually through unprotected sex with someone who is already infected‚ but it can also be transmitted through infected blood. The immune system is greatly affected by the disease. Once it enters the body‚ the virus recognizes a protein on helper T-cells‚ called CD4 (Cluster of Differentiation Antigen No. 4)‚ and it attaches onto that receptor to take over the CD4 cell. The result is a virus
