Flu-like Illness. One of the earliest HIV symptoms in men is a severe 'flu-like' illness, known as the 'seroconversion illness.'. Seroconversion is the point in time where a person's blood is converted from being HIV negative to HIV positive, by the production of antibodies.
Erosion causes the surface of mountains to be younger than the rocks that form the mountains themselves. Glacial processes produce characteristic landforms, such as pyramidal peaks, knife-edge arÃªtes, and bowl-shaped cirques that can contain lakes.
These colder climates strongly affect the ecosystems of mountains: different elevations have different plants and animals. Because of the less hospitable terrain and climate, mountains tend to be used less for agriculture and more for resource extraction and recreation, such as mountain climbing. The highest mountain on Earth is Mount Everest in the Himalayas of Asia, whose summit is 8,850 m (29,035 ft) above mean sea level.
