Answer:

The correct answer will be- tension

Explanation:

Centripetal force is the force acting on the object moving in a circular path with direction towards the center. The centripetal force causes the object to follow a curved path.

Three forces together act on the string with key: Tension (a force acting on the key chain due to string), gravity (the downward force), and friction (resisting force). Out of these the main source of action of centripetal force is the "tension" applied by the string on the key-chain.

Thus, tension is the answer.

According to the pedigree chart, which statement MUST be true?
Crank

Answer:

B

Explanation:

This is because the original male is not affected by the disease. In the second generation they have a female child who is a carrier of the disease because she passes it down to her son, but she is not affected. Seeing how all males that carried the disease were affected at some point the disease must lay dormant in female carriers but not males. This means the original father cannot be a carrier of the disease. Hope this helps!

Which structure has the least effect on the ability of a virus to infect and replicate in a host cell?
AleksAgata [21]
The answer is an envelope.

A virus is an infectious agent that can replicate only inside a host cell. When it is outside the cell, it consists of genetic material coated with protein capsid. Some viruses also have an envelope which covers capsid. The function of the envelope is to identify and bind some receptor sites on the host membranes. After fusing with the cell membrane, it allows to capsid and genetic material to enter the cell and infect it.
