Answer: The correct answer for the fill in the blank is Glucose.

Complex carbohydrates are the macronutrients consisting of three or more sugars. They are also called as polysaccharides and oligosaccharides as they are made up of many monosaccharide units.

They are the primary source of energy for human beings and animals. Example- Starch, which is primarily made up of long chains of glucose or fructose. It is abundantly found in food like rice, wheat, and potato.

Glucose ( simple sugar) is a monosaccharide. Therefore, many glucose units combine and form polysaccharide or complex carbohydrates.  

Thus, the complex carbohydrates are a source of glucose.

Define virus and virion, and describe the parts of a virion.
leva [86]

Answer:

A virus is a tiny infectious biological agent that can only replicate or duplicate inside the host cell. These infectious agents can infect all different types of living organisms ranging from animals and plants to microorganisms and archaea and bacteria.

Virions are ineffective particle or form of the virus outside of the host cell, with RNA or DNA and a protein capsid.

The main role of these infectious agent virions is to transfer the DNA or RNA genome from itself to the cell of host and expressed the gene which means produce proteins from the genome transferred to the host cell.

During the early days of deciphering the human genome, scientists were surprised to find that the number of genes appeared to be
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Given what we know, we can confirm that the aspect of nucleic acids and transcription that can help explain this discrepancy is that of alternative splicing.

<h3>Alternative Splicing.</h3>
  • This process allowed the cells to use a single gene for the creation of various proteins.
  • This process includes the separation of RNA at splicing sites to create new versions of the mRNA strand.
  • This helps to increase the diversity of mRNA's available and create more proteins.

Therefore, given that alternative splicing allows the cells to create multiple forms of distinct proteins from a single gene, this allowed our organisms to develop the vast number of proteins we use, without the need for a much larger genome.
