Several factors affect the rate at which enzymatic concentration, substrate concentration, and the presence of any inhibitors or activators
Answer:
Viruses replicate only inside host cells.
Explanation:
<u>Viruses are not used as evidence to support the cell theory because they are not considered a cell and cannot carry out vital life processes without getting into host cells. </u>
According to the cell theory, the cell is the basic unit of life, all living organisms are made up of cells and cells arose from preexisting cells. A virus that is not in a host cell is just a piece of DNA/RNA surrounded by a protein coat and is not capable of carrying out any life process for it to be considered living.
<em>Viruses are only able to reproduce and multiply when they get access to a living host. They use the genetic mechanisms of the host to replicate their DNA/RNA using the lytic or lysogenic cycle. Hence, they are not used to support the cell theory. </em>
Yes it does affect individuals
Cancer cells reproduce the same way the other cells reproduce. The difference between cancer cells and others is that their reproduction is uncontrollable. They constantly go through the cell cycle and they reproduce. Two ways cell reproductions are meiosis and mitosis. DNA duplicates itself. Cancer is incessantly receiving messages.
Certain fossils, called index fossils, help geologists match rock layers. To be useful as an index fossil, a fossil must be widely distributed and represent a type of organism that existed for a brief time period. Index fossils are useful because they tell the relative ages of the rock layers in which they occur.
