Answer:

Mutation takes place in viruses as they occur in a cellular organism, the presence of a large number of mutants in the virus genome give virus population ability to adapt quickly to selective pressures

Some viruses like influenza and HIV virus mutate so rapidly from one host to another host cell that it becomes very difficult for the immune cell to prepare antibodies or for the scientist to prepare a vaccine against the viruses.

Explanation:

Given:

Distance cover by space shuttle = 500,000 meter

Speed of space shuttle = 700 m/s

Find:

Time taken by space shuttle

Computation:

Time taken = Distance / Speed

Time taken by space shuttle = Distance cover by space shuttle / Speed of space shuttle

The soil order of inceptisols in USDA in the soil taxonomy because they have the capability to form by the change of parent material. Also they are known to be more developed than that of entisols. Presence of clay, iron oxide, aluminium oxide and organic matters are also not found. But the entisols can not be changed from that of parent material. They are either rock or sediments.

Softa [21]

Answer: B) Jupiter and the sun have a similar composition.

Explanation:The only significant difference between the sun and Jupiter is in the sizes i.e jupiter is smaller compared to the size of the sun.

However their similarities is in their composition i.e what they are made up (helium and hydrogen).

The core of Jupiter is made up of liquid metallic hydrogen and the sun's core or center is also made up 34% mass plasma of hydrogen.

So option B (Jupiter and the sun have a similar composition) best describes the relationship between Jupiter and the sun.
