Why would a drug that damages capsules help treat a viral infection

Biology
1 answer:
ss7ja [257]3 years ago
4 0

Drug that demages capsule is used to treat viral infection because Curing a viral infection  antibiotics are useless against viral infections. This is because viruses are so simple that they use their host cells to perform their activities for them. So antiviral drugs work differently to antibiotics, by interfering with the viral enzymes instead.  

Antiviral drugs are currently only effective against a few viral diseases, such as influenza, herpes, hepatitis B and C and HIV – but research is ongoing. A naturally occurring protein, called interferon (which the body produces to help fight viral infections), can now be produced in the laboratory and is used to treat hepatitis C infections.

Which species will most likely survive if earth temperature increase?
joja [24]

It's for sure not A because having thick fur will only make you hotter, and thus you will suffer a heat stroke. It's not C because small ears would not be long enough to provide you with cooling. That one does not make sense. It could be D, but the species would need to have alot of muscles in order to be consistently flapping there ears for the constant hear. Answer is B because it is the most logic, and the fewer amount of fur, the less hotter you will be, especially if your fur provides insulation.

Answer is B. Species B because fur would provide insulation.

The excretory system helps the respiratory system by
Leto [7]

Answer:

The excretory system helps the respiratory system by removing carbon dioxide that is produced during respiration (third option).

Explanation:

The lungs are in charge of the breathing process, being the main organ of the respiratory system. Each lung is considered an excretory organ —belonging to the excretory system— since it is capable of eliminating the carbon dioxide (CO₂) produced by the metabolism during expiration.

As a result of the gaseous exchange, the oxygen entering the lungs through the inhaled air passes into the blood, while the CO₂ is removed from the blood. This CO₂ is removed during expiration, which makes the lungs part of the excretory system.

The other options are not correct because:

  • <em>The excretory system does </em><u><em>not introduce more oxygen into the lungs</em></u><em>. </em>
  • <em>The </em><u><em>circulation of blood in and out of the lungs</em></u><em> is a function of the circulatory system. </em>
  • <u><em>Urine is not produced by breathing</em></u><em>.</em>
