The two DNA<span> strands are known as polynucleotides since they are </span>composed<span> of simpler units called nucleotides. Each nucleotide is </span>composed<span> of a nitrogen-containing nucleobase—either cytosine (C), guanine (G), adenine (A), or thymine (T)—as well as a sugar called deoxyribose and a phosphate group.</span>
The correct answer is d. 8p+; 9n; 10e−
Oxygen exists in three isotopes ¹⁶O, ¹⁷O and ¹⁸O. The atomic number of oxygen is 8. It means its nuclei has 8 protons. The given is oxide⁻² anion. This means it has gained 2 electrons. Thus, oxide anion have 8 protons and 10 (8+2) electrons. The number of neutrons depends on the isotope, in this question mass number is given¹⁷O. The mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus. Hence, number of neutrons oxide anion will be 17-8 = 9 neutrons.
Answer:
The correct answer is - option B. ducks and swine.
Explanation:
Influenza virus is capable of the genetic reassortment. This reassortment involves the reassortment of genetic parts in between two influenza strain. This takes place due to the ability of influenza virus to alter or modify the structure of Hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase.
Some other characters also helps them to develop different strains for different host such as mutation, antigenic drift and many other conditions. Influenza virus subtype A are belongs to the avian host so they affect the birds such as duck, swan, gesse. Other than avian variants there is another strain that affect pigs known as swan variants. These strains are virulent if reassorted with human strains.
Thus, the correct answer is - option B.
