1 Why the test is used: Between 75% and 90% of people with lupus have a positive anti-dsDNA test. 2  Also, the test is very specific for lupus. 3  Therefore, a positive test can be useful in confirming a diagnosis. 4  For many people, the titer, or level, of the antibodies rises as the disease becomes more active.
The zone below ground where the pore spaces are filled with ground water is called the saturated zone. Above the saturated zone, where the pore spaces are not filled with ground water, is the unsaturated zone. The water table marks the boundary between the saturated and unsaturated zone. The water table intersects Earth's surface at rivers and at lakes.
The two points where the rotation axis meets the surface of the Earth are known as the north pole and the south pole and the great circle perpendicular to the rotation axis and lying half-way between the poles is known as the equator.
