Question
impact of research
according to the article, researchers began to study the dna of descendants of the eyam villagers who survived the plague
this has helped scientists make strides in the fight against which other disease?
hiv and aids
influenza
heart disease
malaria
The study of DNA from plague - survivor descendants is relevant in the context of genetic resistance. HIV and AIDS research has explored genetic factors (like CCR5 - delta 32 mutation) that can confer resistance to viral infections. Plague resistance research may have parallels in understanding genetic aspects of viral (HIV/AIDS) resistance. Influenza, heart disease, and malaria have different etiologies (viral - influenza, non - infectious - heart disease, protozoan - malaria) not as directly linked to plague - resistance - related genetic studies as HIV/AIDS.
