There are choices for this question namely:

<span>a. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
b. T-lymphocyte virus type I
c. Epstein-Barr virus
d. Parvovirus
e. Poxvirus
</span>
The correct answers are HIV, T-lymphocyte virus type I, and Epstein-Barr virus. HIV or human immunodefiency virus will predispose the patient in developing Kaposi sarcoma in later stages of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. T-lymphocyte virus type I is believed to be the etiological agent for developing T-cell leukemia or lymphoma. Epstein-Barr virus is associated with both nasopharyngeal carcinoma and Burkitt lymphoma. 

<em>Parvovirus B19 causes a viral exanthem called erythema infectiosum which has no propensity to malignancy. Poxvirus is the etiologic agent for molluscum contagiosum, also with no propensity in developing malignancy. </em>

Likurg_2 [28]

The answer is outer hair cells can be seen near the center of the basilar membrane where the hightest vibration takes place.  The basilar membrane can be seen under the inner hair cells, the movement of stereocilia and the resulting modulation of their ionic currents is likely to be greater for outer hair cells than for inner hair cells.

27. What is the major reactant needed for the Citric Acid Cycle (aka Krebs Cycle)?
sp2606 [1]

Answer: b. Acetyl Co-A

Explanation:

Acetyl CoA produced through pyruvate, amino acids, and fatty acids are oxidized in the Krebs cycle in CO2, obtaining as products NADH, FADH2 and GTP (ATP). Parallel to this oxidation, the Krebs cycle produces compounds used as precursors for biosynthesis. As it is a cycle, an oxaloacetate molecule could, in principle, oxidize an amount indefinite of acetyl CoA. Acetyl-CoA is formed from the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate, sequentially performed by pyruvate dehydrogenase -PDH (complex multi enzymatic of 3 enzymes), in the mitochondrial matrix.
