1) How does a virus enter a cell?

1 answer:

5 0

1) How does a virus enter a cell: Some enveloped viruses can dissolve right through the cell membrane of the host because both the virus envelope and the cell membrane are made of lipids. Those viruses that do not enter the cell must inject their contents (genetic instructions, enzymes) into the host cell.

2) What is the function of an antibody: Antibodies, also known as immunoglobulins, are Y-shaped proteins that are produced by the immune system to help stop intruders from harming the body. When an intruder enters the body, the immune system springs into action. These invaders, which are called antigens, can be viruses, bacteria, or other chemicals.

3) How are antibodies made: Antibodies are produced by specialized white blood cells called B lymphocytes (or B cells). When an antigen binds to the B-cell surface, it stimulates the B cell to divide and mature into a group of identical cells called a clone.

Kay [80]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Tropical rain forest are one of the important biomes of the world that is characterized by a short or no dry season and a precipitation of overall 60 mm each month. They are also known as lowland equatorial evergreen rainforest. If we talk about location, they mostly are found between fall between the Tropic of Cancer and the Capricorn since they lie near to equator and they receive sufficient amount of sunshine and rain.

Due to their location near the equators, they receive greater amount of sunshine than other biomes and when sunshine is greater the rate of water evaporation is also greater that results in more rainfall.
