Answer:

The process in which a substance loses an electron in a chemical reaction is called oxidation. The lost electron cannot exist on its own and must be gained by a second substance. ... Reduction is gain of electrons and thus gaining of negative charge. The atom that acquired electrons is said to be reduced.

masha68 [24]

The answer is D, for when one tropic level is eaten by the tropic level above it, the tropic level is supporting the higher one. I. E. Rabbits are supported by the grass because rabbits eat the grass. Also, the grass population would be larger than rabbits, the rabbits larger than snakes, so on and so forth, so B is ruled out. B states that each population is larger than the one BEFORE it, but there is no way there would be more rabbits than grass. Also, there are both herbivores and carnivores in the food chain, so A and C are out. The best answer is D.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is an illness caused by a coronavirus. Symptoms, including a high fever, headaches, and

monitta

Answer:

lytic, because of the quick onset of symptoms after infection

Explanation:

As seen in the question above, the SARS virus tends to develop symptoms very quickly when it is infecting a person. This speed in the development of symptoms is a characteristic of the lytic cycle, in relation to the reproductive cycle of viruses. This is because in the lytic cycle, a virus can infect many cells at once, which accelerates the development of the disease. This cycle allows the virus to use all of the cell's biological machinery to reproduce more copies of the virus. When these copies are ready, the virus causes the destruction of the host cell and the release of new viruses to other cells, where the whole process will be repeated. This is all done very quickly.

The lysogenic cycle does not cause the rapid infection of thousands of cells, since it is necessary that there is an adaptation between the DNA of the cell and the DNA of the virus. This slows down the infection process and, therefore, symptoms appear more slowly.

How do schemas help structure our memories?

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Schemas refers to a cognitive frame work which help humans to organize and give interpretations to information obtained both from within and from the external enviroment. Schema guide human cognitive processes and behaviour. Schema helps in structuring our memories by acting as a glue which hold all the information we have gathered together. Shcema is used in recognizing new experience and in relating it with old experiences. Schema affects humans' perception, encoding, memory recall, etc.
