The virophages require a bigger virus to double themselves known as the host-virus. They are devoid of the genes for proteins required to double themselves and are always smaller in comparison to archaea and bacteria. On the other hand, in viruses, the genetic information can be in the form of RNA or DNA.  

Both the virophages and viruses possess a protein capsid enveloping their nucleic acid. Both the forms do not belong to any of the three domains, and they cannot replicate on their own. Neither the virophages nor the viruses produce energy via mitochondria.

Potentially damaging stimuli that result in pain are selectively detected by ________.

Having receptors that selectively detect pain and nothing else helps an organism to understand what stimuli to avoid.</span>

Explain the fluid mosaic model
MrRa [10]
The model describes how cellular membranes i.e. lipid bilayers are organized. Despite the fluidity, lipid bilayers can form certain domains with different characterisrics and compositions. The cell can use different mixtures of lipids to create a 'mosaic' or 'patchwork' of domains.
An example of such domains are so called 'lipid rafts' which are aggregates of certain lipids (mostly cholesterol and sphingomyelins). In these rafts the lateral diffusion of membrane-bound proteins is strongly reduced, thereby forming stable complexes to facilitate, for example, signal-processing and transduction.
Note that a lot about how or why a cell creates these domains is still unknown.
