What is cell?
Family Health
Cells are the basic building blocks of all living things.
The human body is composed of trillions of cells.
They provide structure for the body, take in nutrients
from food, convert those nutrients into energy, and
carry out specialized functions. Cells also contain
the body’s hereditary material and can make copies
of themselves.
The three tenets to the cell theory are as described
below: All living organisms are composed of one or
more cells. The cell is the basic unit of structure and
organization in organisms. Cells arise from pre-
existing cells.
The unified cell theory states that: all living things
are composed of one or more cells; the cell is the
basic unit of life; and new cells arise from existing
cells. Rudolf Virchow later made important
contributions to this theory.
There are two types of cell, prokaryotic (bacteria)
and eukaryotic (animal, plant, fungi and protoctista
(unicellular organisms)). Prokaryotes have no
nucleolus – the DNA is in the cytoplasm, and it can
from small circular strands of DNA called plasmids.
Eukaryotic cells all have their DNA enclosed in a
nucleus.

Family health is a state in which the family is a
resource for the day-to-day living and health of its
members. A family provides its individual members
with key resources for healthful living, including food,
clothing, shelter, a sense of self-worth, and access
to medical care. Further, family health is a
socioeconomic process whereby the health of family
members is mentioned.
As the basic socioeconomic unit of most societies,
the family is the interface between societal and
individual health, and the economic interface
between the family and society determines what
resources are available for a family's health. For
example, in some families the father is the primary
income earner, yet his skills are marketable only in
remote, resource-based communities. In such
families, members may have adequate financial
resources for healthful living because of the father's
stable employment, though their shared geographic
location has the potential to negatively impact
access to fresh foods, recreation facilities, and
quality health care. Here, the community plays a
primary role in mitigating the effects of geographic
location. In healthy communities, many families will
benefit from resources available in the community
and, in turn, will produce members who contribute in
kind, with family dynamics mediating this reciprocal
process.
Human sexuality, unlike gender, has kept a
relatively stable definition by which it refers to
all sexual attitudes and behaviours in an erotic, or
lack of erotic, nature.
Gender, which can be understood as the way an
individual expresses and understands themselves in
relation to their sex, is often used interchangeably
with the term sex. This reflects the common
underlying assumption that the two are always
aligned. However for many young people their
gender identity may differ from their sex (which is
indicated by biological sex characteristics, such as
genitals, hormones and sex organs). Such
individuals may feel uncomfortable in their own skin,
or as though they are trapped inside someone else’s
body. For intersex people, their physical sex may not
be distinctly male or female.
Sexuality can be complicated and is not fixed for
everyone. There are many kinds of sexualities that
people identify as having – and it is now accepted
that same-sex attraction is a normal part of human
sexuality. Young people often begin to explore and
understand their sexuality throughout their
adolescent and childhood years, with many including
straight, gay, lesbian and bisexual people aware of
sexual attractions from an early age. Regardless of
when a person begins to explore their sexuality, this
can be a confusing and challenging time, with gay,
lesbian and bisexual young people in particular often
experiencing an especially difficult time “coming out”
to family and friends.
Gender and sexuality can be very complicated
issues for young people. People identifying as
lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans or intersex (LGBTI)
often face discrimination, bullying or violence and
experience much higher incidents of mental health
issues as a result. This is why it is so important that
young people discuss gender and sexuality, are
supported to be themselves, and know where and
when to seek further help.
What Is HIV?
HIV stands for Human Immunodeficiency Virus. HIV
is the virus that causes AIDS.
Your immune system is your body's defense
system. While the immune system can control many
viruses, HIV targets and infects the same immune
system cells that protect us from germs and
illnesses. These cells are a type of white blood cell
called CD4 cells (sometimes called T-cells).
Without medication to control the virus, HIV usually
takes over CD4 cells and turns them into factories
that produce millions of copies of the virus. As the
virus makes copies, it damages or kills the CD4
cells, weakening the immune system. This is how
HIV causes AIDS.
What Is AIDS?
AIDS stands for Acquired Immune Deficiency
Syndrome. AIDS is the most advanced stage of HIV
infection.
HIV causes AIDS by attacking CD4 cells, which the
immune system uses to protect the body from
disease. When the immune system loses too many
CD4 cells, you are less able to fight off infections and
can develop serious, often deadly, infections. These
are called opportunistic infections (OIs).
When someone dies of AIDS, death is usually due
to OIs or other long-term effects of HIV. AIDS refers
to the weakened state of the body’s immune system,
which can no longer stop opportunistic infections.
What Is the Difference Between HIV and AIDS?
You do not have AIDS as soon as you acquire HIV.
You can live with HIV (be HIV+) for many years with
no signs of disease, or only mild-to-moderate
symptoms. People living with HIV and taking HIV
drugs as prescribed have a very low risk of
progressing to AIDS. But without treatment, HIV will
eventually wear down the immune system in most
people to the point where they have few CD4 cells
and develop opportunistic infections.
