The endocrine system describes as the mediator of hormonal synthesis and action in the human body.

<h3>What do you mean by Endocrine system?</h3>

The endocrine system may be defined as a system that is composed of various glands and organs which are responsible for the secretion of hormones into the bloodstream and play their role at the target sites.

The endocrine system is controlled by the hypothalamus and the pituitary gland. They release numerous hormones that affect the adrenal gland, thyroid gland, reproductive organs, blood glucose level, and many more.

Therefore, it is well described above.

The peptidoglycan cell wall of bacteria is most analogous to _____.
belka [17]

Answer: chain link fence

Peptidoglycan could be found in high number on gram positive cell walls. The structure of peptidoglycan looks like a cross link which makes it sturdy, so rain coat would be false. It is not an impenetrable brick wall because it still allow some ion and food pass through it.  Sugar candy coat sounds good but chain link fence would be better.

HIV can remain latent for several years and not cause any symptoms in its host. What viral reproduction cycle is occurring durin
lakkis [162]

Answer:

The lytic cycle.

Explanation:

<u>HIV is a retrovirus</u> that has a special enzyme called transcriptase reverse, which can synthesize DNA using RNA as a template. This replication system is particularly useful for the virus because the DNA synthesized from the RNA viral genome can be then integrated into the human chromosomes and stay inactive for years. This is called a lysogenic cycle and is characterized by a latency of the virus and an integration to the host DNA.

When there is a triggering event, <u>this latent virus can be excised from the human chromosome and start producing copies of itself using the host machinery.</u> <u>Then the virions are assembled and after that they lyse the host cell and release new infective units that can then infect neighboring cells. </u>This is called the lytic cycle of the virus and is the reproduction cycle that occurs when a person moves into the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) stage of HIV infection.
