Answer: HIV & related viruses such as HTLV possess unusual virally encoded reverse transcriptase enzyme.

Reverse transcriptase is an enzyme which synthesizes a complementary DNA or cDNA from a RNA template strand. The process of reverse transcription is used by the retroviruses for replicating their genome and proliferating within the host genome. The HIV uses reverse transcriptase to infect humans. Without the reverse transcriptase enzyme the genome of the virus cannot incorporate into the host cell and will fail to replicate. HTLV or human T-lymphotropic virus or HTLV also uses the same mechanism with the enzyme reverse transcriptase.

When tissues are subjected to chemical or physical trauma or invasion by pathogenic microorganisms, what can occur?
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

Inflammation

Explanation:

Inflammation is an immune response produced in the body in response to the damage or trauma caused by physical or chemical factors.

The injured tissue can allow the entry of the microorganism in the body which could cause disease therefore the immune response gets activated to eliminate the pathogen.

The inflammation is marked by the swelling and redness in the injured portion due to the increased flow of blood carrying the White blood cells in that area. The immune cells interact with the pathogen and kill the pathogen.

Thus, Inflammation is the correct answer.
