Explanation:

Liver plays many functions in our body: some are here  

i) In Bile production and excretion.

iii) In metabolism of fats, proteins, and carbohydrates.

iv) In Storage of glycogen, vitamins, and minerals etc.

How does the virus use a host cell to make copies of itself
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

I wasn't quite sure what virus you were referring to in your question, but here's a general answer: Viruses use their host cells' machinery to replicate themselves.

If they are a specific type of virus known as a retrovirus, they have the ability to use the host cells' enzymes to change the RNA contained within the virus into DNA (via some type of replication I suppose).

In other cases, if they contain DNA instead of RNA (that is, the virus), they can use the host cell's machinery to create RNA via enzymes involved in transcription and/or they can incorporate that DNA into the host cell's DNA. This is part of a type of viral replication cycle known as the lysogenic cycle.

In another type of viral replication cycle known as the lytic cycle, the virus simply has itself and its genome duplicated until the host cell bursts, releasing the viral material. Here, again, the virus uses the host cell's machinery to replicate itself.

Chloe reads that given the correct conditions, cuttings from certain plants will form roots along the stem, enabling a new plant
Archy [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is - If you use the rooting hormone when cloning plants from cuttings, then it will be beneficial for the cuttings.

Explanation:

A hypothesis is a possible explanation or solution behind the particular natural world process or phenomenon. It is formed on the basis of the observation of the phenomenon or process, how it works or what characteristics it shows.

In this study, it is found that the root hormones promote the growth in the clonings from the cuttings of plants thus, the provided hypothesis is the correct hypothesis for the experiment given.
