Compare and contrast viruses and cells. Explain a minimum of 4 similarities and/or differences.

Biology
1 answer:
Yakvenalex [24]3 years ago
4 0
The first difference is the size, cells are sized in micrometer (visible at optic microscope) and viruses in nanometer (electronic microscope).

Cells have both DNA and RNA, virus have only one genetic material (DNA or RNA).

Cells have always a membrane, not all the viruses have a membrane, but all of them have capsids in different forms.

Viruses cannot live on their own, they have to parasite a cell to proliferate. Cells can live by themselves and proliferate by scissiparity (divisions).

Cells have ribosomes to translate their RNA. viruses don't (they use the infected cells' ribosomes).

Which equation satisfies the law of conservation of matter?
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. 3O₂ + 2Al → 2AlO₃

Law of conservation of mass states that mass can nether be created nor destroyed in a closed system or chemical reaction i.e. the total mass of the matter always remains the same throughout the chemical or physical change.

For example, in the given reaction 3O₂ + 2Al → 2AlO₃ the total mass of the reactants is equal to the total mass of the product.

Mass of oxygen = 16 x 3 = 48 AMU

Mass of aluminium = 2 x 27 = 54 AMU

Total molecular mass of the reactants = 102 AMU

Total molecular mass of the product = 2 x 27 + 6 x 8 = 102 AMU.

Hence, the total mass of the matter remains the same.

1. Your online chat name should never contain your full name.
Illusion [34]

The correct options are as follows:

1. TRUE.

Your online chat name is your identity, which you use on the internet to communicate with your old friends and new friends, who you have just met and who you probably haven't met personally. It is of utmost importance that you don't use or reveal your full name online. This is because, your full name is the only thing some hackers need to get all the information they need about you. Through that single information, they can cause great havoc for you, like emptying your bank account, using your identity to commit fraud, stealing your email password and sending fraud messages through your box, etc.


2. D.

It is safe to tell an internet friend your favorite music. That is a relatively non important personal information that you can share with anybody. Such an information can not be used against you in any significant way. But sharing personal information such as full name, address and phone numbers can be very dangerous indeed if such information is shared with the wrong person.

Messenger RNA carries a(n) ___________ of the DNA’s instructions out of the nucleus to the ___________.
Nitella [24]


messenger RNA  (mRNA) carries a transcript (copy) of the DNA's instructions out of the nucleus  to the cytoplasm where it attaches to a ribosome.

transfer RNA (tRNA) begins to read (translate) the information on the attached mRNA and corresponding to this information, fetches the appropriate amino acids from the pool of free amino acids in the cytoplasm, and brings them to the ribosome where they are linked into a chain or polymer forming the primary structure of the desired protein.
