There are many routes in introducing drugs into the body. Hypodermic injection per se, is introduction of drugs into a part, as into subcutaneous tissues, the vascular tree, or an organ. the prefix hypo means "under" while the latin word derma refers to the "skin". Transdermal administration on the other hand, is the route wherein active ingredients are delivered through dermis or skin only. One example is the transdermal patches. 
Thus, hypodermic needle administration is not called transdermal, it is rather called subcutaneous administration.

Sholpan [36]

Answer: 37 chromosomes.

Explanation: As is typical of mammals, llamas are diploid organisms, meaning that the number of chromosomes in each of their somatic cells is exactly twice of that found in the gametes (the so-called haploid number, referred to as "n"). If a particular species has 74 chromosomes in its somatic cells, we should expect to find 74/2=37 chromosomes in each gamete.

The mechanism whereby an enveloped virus leaves a host cell is called
Levart [38]

Answer:

Release or egress

Explanation:

Virus can reproduce only within a host cell, this cycle of infection begins with the <em>attachment</em>, where the virus attaches to a specific receptor site on the host cell, after this comes the<em> entry,</em> in the case of enveloped virus, the envelope can fuse directly with the cell membrane to enter the cell, they can also enter through endocytosis. After entering the cell the virus initiates a <em>replication  and assembly </em>mechanism depending on its genome, finally, the last stage of viral replication is the <em>release or egress </em>of the new virions produced in the host organism, some viruses can be released when the host cell dies, but some can leave infected cells by budding through the membrane without directly killing the cell.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
