AZT is a reverse transcriptase inhibitor. How does this drug prevent the replication of a retrovirus

AZT is a thymidine analog

Explanation:

Azidothymidine (AZT) is an antiviral drug used for the treatment of the Human immunodeficiency virus infection (HIV/AIDS) by preventing the transmission of HIV from infected cells. AZT is capable of suppressing the activity of the enzyme reverse transcriptase of the retroviral HIV genome, which enables it to copy RNA into DNA. In infected cells, this double-stranded DNA is integrated into the host genome which is then instructed to produce identical HIV copies. AZT is a thymidine analog that is incorporated into DNA and thus interferes with DNA synthesis, thereby inhibiting cell proliferation.

The spherical shape is caused by the surface tension of the blood. Surface Tension causes the blood drop to pull itself in; both horizontally and vertically. The blood drop will settle into a spherical shape, as a result of the surface tension.

The texture of the target surface upon which a drop of blood falls affects the size and shape of the bloodstain pattern. Hard, nonporous surfaces will produce circular stain patterns that have smooth edges, but softer, porous surfaces will produce spatter stains that are scalloped or have rough edges.

What three forces are involved in eventually causing the drop of blood to fall? the force of gravity, the adhesive force, the force of energy.
