A viral genome:_________

Biology
1 answer:
Ainat [17]2 years ago
6 0

A viral genome may be double or single stranded. So, the correct option is (c).

The viral genomes are either linear in adenoviruses or circular in polyomaviruses. The form of the genome is independent of the type of nucleic acid. Each segment of an RNA virus frequently codes for just one protein, and they are typically found together in a single capsid. The brome mosaic virus and several other plant viruses show that not all segments need to be in the same virion for a virus to be contagious.

Regardless of the nucleic acid composition, a viral genome is virtually invariably either single-stranded or double-stranded. Unpaired nucleic acids make up single-stranded genomes, which are likened to one half of a ladder that has been broken in half. A ladder-like structure made up of two complementary paired nucleic acids is a double-stranded genome.

1. Using only random alignment, how many different combinations do you think are possible for a cell like ours but with only 3 p
alexdok [17]

Answer:

8 possible combinations

Explanation:

In a diploid organism (2n), there are two sets of chromosomes in each cell. Each set of chromosome is contributed by each parent i.e one set of chromosome from the father and one set from the mother.

To determine the number of possible combinations in each gamete of a cell, we use the formula 2^n, where n = number of chromosomes in haploid gametes. In this case, the cell contains 3 pairs of chromosomes, meaning that each gamete will have 3 chromosomes. However, there will be 2³ = 8 possible combinations of chromosomes in each gametes.

1st attempt A segmented viral genome Choose one: A. is packaged at random into new virion particles. B. can only occur in viruse
love history [14]

A segmented viral genome can facilitate rapid evolution of new viral strains.

Explanation:

The genome of the virus contains both coding and non-coding sequences.  Segmented viral genomes are separate unit of nucleic acid in a virion particle and they undergo reassortment.

When the genome of the viral DNA gets segmented, the multiple DNA strands. When two infection with 2 strands of virus takes place simultaneously the two strains may get swapped or cross over. This leads to new strand and hence evolution happens.

examples of such virus are : Birnaviradae, reoviridae
