The virus needs to speak the molecular language of cells. This is how he manages to dominate and enslave them so that they become factories for new viruses, producing the proteins that the infectious agent requires to assemble its descendants. If this conversation is not fine-tuned, even if the virus has the key and enters, it is doomed to failure.

<h3>Why does a virus lethal to us not infect animals?</h3>

For a virus to be able to enter a cell, it must have the right key. And this key, which are the proteins on the surface of viruses, has to enter the correct lock, the receptors that are on the cell membrane. Cells are actually houses with many different doors and locks. Some viruses have keys that open the lock of any cell and any kind of host, and others do not, so the infection caused by viruses is specific.

With this information, we can conclude that some viruses have keys that open the lock of any cell and any kind of host, and others do not, so the infection caused by viruses is specific.

pashok25 [27]

Answer: near methane clathrates and oil deposits.

Explanation:

Natural gas can be defined as a naturally producing hydrocarbon gas which consists of methane, higher alkanes, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, helium and nitrogen.

These are found near the hydrocarbon reservoir in the methane clathrates. These are the sedimentary structures which consists of compost of sea debris. The methane hydrates leak out from these structures and which liberates the methane gas in air.

The natural gas can also be found near the oil deposits.

Which list best represents the flow of stimuli information in the body? stimuli receiver, sensory neuron, central nervous system
Elodia [21]
The first part is the stimuli receiver, such as the retina of an eye. Then the information goes to the sensory neuron, which is connected to the stimuli receiver.
Then the information goes to the central nervous system- the brain!

The brain then sends the information to the motor neuron, which sends it to the muscle (the first option is the correct one)

Which of the following is formed during the light-dependent reaction of photosynthesis? ATP Carbon dioxide Glucose Water
lukranit [14]

Answer:

Glucose

Explanation:

ATP, Carbon Dioxide, and Water are all results of Cellular Respiration and do <em>not</em><em> </em>form during Photosynthesis. These three are actually used in the process of Photosynthesis, so they are not created by it. Plants use photosynthesis to create their own glucose.
