Why do viruses need hosts to reproduce

Biology
1 answer:
Olin [163]3 years ago
5 0
When it comes into contact with a host cell, a virus can insert its genetic material into its host, literally taking over the host's functions. An infected cell produces more viral protein and genetic material instead of its usual products. Some viruses may remain dormant inside host cells for long periods, causing no obvious change in their host cells (a stage known as the lysogenic phase). But when a dormant virus is stimulated, it enters the lytic phase: new viruses are formed, self-assemble, and burst out of the host cell, killing the cell and going on to infect other cells. The diagram below at right shows a virus that attacks bacteria, known as the lambda bacteriophage, which measures roughly 200 nanometers

1. <span>what is the amount of the bolus dose, in both milligrams and milliliters, that you will administer in the first minute? 
</span>The doses is 0.9 mg/kg and the weight of the patient is 143 pounds. So, the total doses of drug needed will be: 
Total doses= 0.9 mg/kg * 143 pounds * 0.453592 kg/pound= 58.37 mg.

10% of the doses will be given bolus for 1 min, so the amount would be:
Bolus doses= 10%*58.37 mg= 5.837 mg.
In mililiters, it would be: 5.837 mg * 1ml/mg= 5.837 ml.

<span>2. what is the amount of the remaining dose that you will need to administer?
The remaining dose would be 90% of the total dose. You can either calculate it directly or subtract the bolus doses from the total doses.
Remaining doses= total doses- bolus doses= </span>58.37 mg- 5.837 mg= <span>52.533mg</span>
