Some viruses can be crystallized and their structures analyzed. one such virus is yellow mottle virus, which infects beans. this

virus has a single-stranded rna genome containing about 6,300 nucleotides. its capsid is 25–30 nm in diameter and contains 180 identical capsomeres. if the yellow mottle virus capsid has 20 facets, how many proteins form each facet?

The correct answer is 9 proteins form each of the 20 facets of this virus. A capsid is the protein shell that surrounds a virus. A capsomere is the subunit of the capsid. Depending on the virus, capsomeres arrange in many different shapes to form the capsid. The yellow mottle virus has 20 facets, this means that it has an icosahedral capsid. Since it contains 180 identical capsomeres, we can conclude that 9 proteins form each facet.

How do the tides affect organisms that live in tidal waters?
4vir4ik [10]
<span>Tides and currents carry nutrients, moderate temperatures, and influence conditions in numerous ecosystems. The relationship between society and tides and currents is obvious as coastal cities built to withstand prescribed levels of tidal surge are now being impacted by record breaking tidal surges, and the building of solid coastal structures do not allow waves to dissipate energy on land but deflect their energy to other coastal areas along the shore.

Compare the shapes of the organisms that have cell walls with those that do not have cell walls.
inna [77]
The best answer is A. The purpose of the cell wall is to hold the cell in a specific shape, usually rectangular or square. For example, a plant cell's wall keeps it rigid so that the plant can stand up. 

If the cell does not have a wall, it can easily change shape to accommodate for things coming in and out of the cell. 

Hope this helps!

Schach [20]

Answer:

The correct answer is Single Circular DNA Molecule.

Explanation:

A bacterial genome, which is the DNA that is found in bacteria collectively, is a double stranded circular DNA. So it has no start and end like double stranded helix DNA. The option D, which is "Single Circular DNA Molecule" is correct.

I hope this answer helps.
