What characteristics of life are not independently demonstrated by viruses?

Biology

Inga [223]2 years ago

Because they are not formed of cells, viruses cannot maintain a steady state, develop, or generate their own energy. Viruses are more like robots than actual living things, even though they do multiply and adapt to their surroundings.

<h3>What aspects of life are exhibited by viruses?</h3>

The ability to replicate and mutate are two aspects of life that viruses possess, but only in live host cells.

Viruses and bacteria differ greatly from one another. While viruses may grow in both living and nonliving environments, bacteria are found in nature. While viruses might perish without a host, bacteria can live without one. Viruses reproduce by lytic fission, whereas bacteria reproduce through binary fission.

Although they are minuscule as well, viruses are distinct from other microbes.

Viruses are intracellular creatures (they infect the host cell), whereas bacteria are intercellular organisms (they exist in between cells).

sveta [45]

Answer:

Hello!

The answer is B. It is made up of amino acids.

Explanation:

Collagen:

Collagen is the most abundant protein found in mammals and makes up 25%of the entire protein count. Collagen is mostly present in the form of collagen fibers which give the extracellular matrix structure and support.

Amino acids:

Amino acids are organic molecules that possess the amino (-NH2) functional group. Amino acids are the building block of proteins. They combine together through peptide linkages to form polypeptides and polypeptides link together in the form of complex proteins.

Collagen possesses a complex structure of amino acids arranged in three alpha-chains wound around each other to give a triple-helix.
