Enveloped viral membranes are generally (C)lipid bilayers with associated virus-specific (C)glycoproteins.

Viruses are intracellular parasites that hijack the cellular machinery for their own replication. Therefore, an essential step in the viral life cycle is the transfer of the viral genome into cells. Enveloped viruses (viruses with a lipid envelope) use a two-step process to release their genetic material into the cell.

It first binds to specific surface receptors on target cell membranes and then fuses with these. Viruses and cell membranes. This last step can occur at the cell surface or after internalization of the virus particle by endocytosis or another pathway (such as micropinocytosis).

Strikingly, the virus-cell-membrane fusion process proceeds along essentially the same intermediate steps as other membrane fusions that occur, for example, in vesicle fusion at neural synapses or cell-cell fusion in yeast mating. Fusogens, special viral proteins, facilitate the fusion of viruses and cell membranes.

Classify each description as true of introns only, exons only, or both.A-present in eukaryotic genomesB-generally absent from ba
maxonik [38]

The right answers are:

A-present in eukaryotic genomes ==> Both exons and introns

B-generally absent from bacterial genomes ==> Introns

C-part of the final mRNA strand ==> Exons

D-code for an amino acid sequence ==> Exons

E-removed from initial mRNA strand prior to translation ==> Introns

F-present in the DNA used as the template for transcription ==> Both exons and introns

In the genes of eukaryotic organisms, the exons are the segments of an RNA precursor that are conserved in the RNA after splicing and that are found in mature RNA in the cytoplasm. The segments of the RNA precursor that are removed during splicing are called in opposition to introns. Exons are mainly found in messenger RNAs (mRNAs) encoding proteins. Some mRNAs may sometimes undergo an alternative splicing process in which one or more exons may be excised or some introns preserved in rare cases.

Plants use nitrogen in fertilizers for growth. However, much of the nitrogen goes unused. What is one direct outcome of this exc
Olin [163]
There are many environmental negative direct outcomes of unused excess nitrogen from nitrogenous fertilizers. One of these is eutrophication. Eutrophication is the excessive richness of nutrients in a water body as a result of fertilizer run offs from the land, which causes a dense growth of plants in the water. Other negative outcomes are: green house effects, acid rain and contamination of underground water which has negative effects on human health.
