A virus cannot reproduce on its own. Viral DNA or RNA must enter the host cell and direct the cell to make the materials needed

to produce more viral particles. There are two pathways a virus may take: the lytic or lysogenic pathway.
How are the lytic and lysogenic viral pathways ALIKE?
A) They both have a prolonged period of dormancy.
B) They both eventually cause the death of the host cell.
C) In both cases, viral DNA is replicated when the host cell undergoes fission.
D) In both cases, viral DNA is integrated into the host DNA for a period of time.

Answer:

B) They both eventually cause death of the host.

Explanation:

Viruses do not have their own energy producing system. Thus, viruses can only reproduce or replicate using host energy and reproduce by two methods. These are called the lytic cycle and the lysogenic cycle. In both the cycles, the viruses inject their genetic material into the host cell. In the lysogenic cycle, the viral DNA is integrated into the host DNA, while in the lytic cycle, the viral DNA exists as a separate free floating molecule within the host cell, and it reproduces separately from the host DNA. In both the cases the host cell die.

Many nutrients are absorbed in the blood stream from the small intestine. the first organ that gets this nutrient blood is
MArishka [77]
The first organ that receives nutrients from the small intestine is the liver. To better understand this, check out the process flow of the digestive system up to how the liver becomes the first organ to benefit from the nutrient absorption by the small intestines. 1. Esophagus - After chewing, the food is pushed down the esophagus and then out of the esophageal sphincter, which is a ring-like muscle at the junction of the esophagus and stomach that controls the passage of food and liquid between the esophagus and stomach.2. Stomach - Swallowed food and liquid are stored in the stomach. The stomach then mixes the food and liquid with digestive juices that it produces. The mixed food and gastric juices will then be called chyme. The chyme is then slowly emptied into the small intestine. 3. Small intestine - The muscles of the small intestine mix food with digestive juices from the pancreas, liver, and intestine and push the mixture forward to help with further digestion. The small intestine has multiple parts: the duodenum, the jejunum and the ileum. The ileum mix and push food towards the large intestines. Located within the ileum are villi that increase the surface area for absorption. The nutrients absorbed here are transferred to the blood stream and liver.
