Licemer1 [7]

A batsman is unlikely to score a century in every cricket match. This is an example of "partial reinforcement".

<u>Option: C</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

This method of arranging reinforcement is also called intermittent reinforcement after certain number of correct answers or certain interval of time. Thus here a batsman donot plan intentionally to make a century in every cricket match, but it goes random. Although when they need to score high on pressure, they force themselves to stretch as much possible which is not general.

What property of a virus makes it useful for making transgenic organisms?
morpeh [17]

Viruses reproduce by incorporating their DNA into an organism's genome to tap into the host replication mechanism to reproduce themselves. Viruses, therefore, cannot copy outside their host. This property of viruses makes them suitable for the production of transgenic organisms. This is achieved by replacing the DNA piece that causes virulence in the virus with the desired gene that is to be transduced into the host organisms.
