Biological science is our main look into the effects of Aids and ways to treat the disease. This type of science deals with examining the structure, function, growth, origin, evolution, and distribution of living things. This gives use the ability to diagnosis diseases such as Aids by looking at the cells in the body. Later in this paper I will discuss how Aids and HIV are diagnosed more thoroughly.
Some major technologies have also been developed to help with research of diseases in science. Some of these technologies are health technologies such as microscopes, x- ray machines, lasers, plasma recovery equipment, microtome, spectrometers, chromatographers and then simple things to promote our safety like gloves, goggles, bandages, and other protective wear. Other technologies that are important to the medical field in many ways are things like electrification, planes, cars, highways, electronics, imaging, refrigeration, computers, internet, telephones and high performance materials.
