Answer:

Sample Response: Mutations may be beneficial, harmful, or neutral to organisms. If the change caused by a mutation is useful to the organism, then it is beneficial. If the change is damaging to an organism, then it is harmful. If the change is neither useful nor damaging, then the mutation is neutral.

A viral infection in which the virus can remain latent in the host cell for weeks to years is described as a(n) _________ infect
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

Persistent infection

Explanation:

Viruses have the ability to remain in the host cell in a dormant state or latent state for many years. This is a part of reproduction cycle of a virus called the lysogenic cycle. This causes persistent infection in the host because the virus remains in the host cell and cause infection.

This persistent infection can cause cancer in the host because the viral genome incorporates in the host cell genome and take controls on its gene machinery. For example, HPV can incorporate itself in the host genome and can alter it which can cause cancer. So the correct answer is persistent infection.

(a) It is possible to measure a patient’s heart rate by either palpating their peripheral pulse, by observing their ECG, or by l
Dimas [21]
B)<span>When you listen to the heart sounds, you are hearing the flow of blood which stops abruptly when a heart valve closes. This produces the "lub-dub" sounds. 1st heart sound (when the Mitral Valve closes) as the ventricle contracts (systole) and then 2nd heart sound (when the Aortic Valve closes) and the ventricle starts to fill again (diastole)
</span><span>The pulse is the wave of pressure you can feel through the artery walls. This denotes systole.
</span><span>The ECG's QRS complex is the electrical signal that tells the Ventricles to contract. You can see that the QRS occurs right at the beginning of systole and triggers Isovolumetric contraction.
</span><span>So the QRS on the ECG, the pulse wave you can feel (ie. the rise in aortic pressure) and the 1st heart sound all signify SYSTOLE.
</span><span>there a delay between systole of the ECG and the resulting pulse felt in the finger (R-Pulse) </span>because it takes a little bit of time for the pressure to transmit through the body, as the finger is not on the heart (if it was there would be no delay)

What process completed division in a PLANT cell?
ivann1987 [24]

After mitosis comes cytokinesis, the division of the cytoplasm. This is another process in which animal and plant cells differ... In a plant cell, the cytoplasm is divided by the formation of a new cell wall, called the cell plate, between the two daughter cells.

Hope this helps! :)
