A vector of a zoonotic pathogen differs from a host of the pathogen in that it is not affected by the pathogen.

<h3>What are vectors and pathogens?</h3>

Vectors are organisms which serve as carriers of disease-causing organisms known as pathogen. Vectors usually serve as transport or transit mechanisms by which diseases spread.

Pathogen are organisms that cause disease. A zoonotic pathogen is a pathogen that can move from non-human animals to humans.

The vector of a zoonotic pathogen differ from a host of the pathogen in that the vector is not affected by the pathogen and the vector is also non-human.

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Please give me brainlist

Explanation:

There is a 50 percent chance that daughters carry the gene and can pass it to the next generation. There is a 50 percent chance that a daughter will not carry the gene and, therefore, cannot pass it on. There is a 50 percent chance that sons do not have the gene and will be healthy.

Why can the same trna and rrna molecules be used to synthesize a wide variety of polypeptides
Drupady [299]

Answer: The transcription and translation process allows trna and rrna molecules to be used to synthesize wide variety of polypeptides.

Explanation:

DNA molecule is made up of information for coding proteins. This information is passed on the mRNA during a process known as transcription. Transcription is the first of many steps of DNA based gene expression in which a part of the segment of DNA is copied into RNA (especially mRNA) by the enzyme RNA polymerase.

Both DNA and RNA are nucleic acids, which use base pairs of nucleotides as a complementary language. During the process of transcription, a DNA sequence is read by an RNA polymerase, which gives a complementary, antiparallel RNA strand referred to as a primary transcript.

A large diversity among genes is followed by a large amount of various mRNA molecules. However, the ribosomes consist of rRNA, which is included in the process of translation. Translation is the process whereby ribosomes in the cytoplasm or ER synthesize proteins after the process of transcription of DNA to RNA in the cell's nucleus. The overall process is called gene expression.

The smallest of the three types of RNA is tRNA, which has only 75 to 95 nucleotides and has a role in bringing particular amino acids to the growing polypeptide. It can be concluded that mRNA contribute to the diversity of polypeptide molecules due to the fact that it carries an information about their synthesis.

What happens to a snail/slug if you pour salt on it? why would this happen?
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

When you pour salt on a snail/slug the water is very quickly pulled out of the cells of the snail's body by a process called osmosis. As it dries out, the snail's body produces a slimy substance to protect itself. The bubbling comes from the slime and air being forced out of the snail's body as it shrivels up. If enough salt is poured on the snail it will die of dehydration very quickly.
