Which of the following statements about viruses is false?

Biology
1 answer:
Sedaia [141]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

C) They are very small uni-cellular microorganisms.

Explanation:

Microorganisms are very small organisms which are not visible to naked eyes. They include bacteria, some protists, some fungi etc. Viruses are also very small pathogens which can infect all types of living organisms, from plants to animals to bacteria.

Viruses are traditionally not considered microorganisms because they behave like non living entities outside the host cell. They do not have a proper cellular structure. Most of them just have genetic material enclosed in a protein shell. They do not even perform normal metabolic functions like replication outside the hosts's body. Hence, they are not considered microorganisms.

Why is scientific knowledge more reliable than other types of knowledge?
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

D. Because science only uses facts that are proven 100% true through the use of  variables.

Explanation:

All the knowledge we read is science books are not merely some observed facts but the result of a systematic scientific methodology through which facts are tested. Science only gives us that knowledge as facts which is  proven 100% true through the use of  variables.For example: if a scientist has studied the effect of salt stress on the growth of plants and he got the results in form of graphs which show that growth of salt treated plants in very less than normal plants. Then he needs to draw conclusion after consulting relevant previous experiments and say that salt stress hinders growth and why? with reasonable logic.

Variables are the things hat he changes like environmental conditions in previous example to see that in changed conditions plant is showing changed behavior. This way a scientist strengthens his results. Therefore, we can say that whatever knowledge we get through science is proven 100% true through the use of  variables.

Hope it helps!

Gene expression—translation how do cells synthesize polypeptides and convert them to functional proteins?
slavikrds [6]
The language of DNA in form of nitrogen bases read in a set of three termed as codons and it is being translated as language of proteins.

First mRNA is read according to the genetic code which can relate the amino acid sequence to proteins. mRNA can be use as the template to assemble in order the chain of amino acid. Translation starts when the mRNA is decoded and the sequence is elongated  until creating an amino acid sequence. Once the stop codon is reached, translation will be stopped and ribosome will release the polypeptide.
