Do you think viruses should be classified as "living organisms"? why or why not?

Not, Viruses are not considered "alive" because they lack many of the properties that scientists associate with living organisms. Primarily, they lack the ability to reproduce without the aid of a host cell, and don't use the typical cell- division approach to replication.

I dont think viruses should be classified as a living organism because they arent made up of cells, they dont grow, and they dont make their own energy. <span />

Question 13 of 20:
IrinaK [193]

the following is formed when a group of tissues works together to perform a common function is called an Organ.

<h3>What is the definition of organs?</h3>

The word organ derives from the Latin term organum (instrument, tool). These structures are objects of physiology, the area of ​​biology that studies how organisms, systems, organs, cells and molecules perform chemical and physical functions in the body.

In this case, is correct to say that an organ is formed when a group of tissues works together to perform a common function.

Which phase of the bacterial growth curve is defined by zero net growth due to a lack of nutrients and excessive waste products
uysha [10]

<u> Bacterial growth curve-</u>

The phase in the bacterial growth curve which is defined by  zero net growth due to a lack of nutrients and excessive waste products being present is the death phase of the growth curve.

<u>Phases of the bacterial growth curve-</u>

The bacterial growth curve is a curve that depicts the number of viable live cells in a bacterial culture over a span of time. This growth curve has four very distinct phases, which are- lag phase, log phase, stationary phase, death phase.

  • Lag phase- The first phase which is the period of metabolic growth rather than division of cells.
  • Log phase- The second phase where the cells are dividing and increasing in numbers.
  • Stationary phase- The third phase where the bacterial cells reach a stagnant period and stop dividing due to the lack of nutrients.
  • Death phase- The last phase where there is no metabolic growth or cellular division. The culture is filled with metabolic wastes from the lysis of cells.

Oksanka [162]
<h2>Transportation across the membrane</h2>

Explanation:

(a) Simple diffusion; Faciliated diffusion-Directions in which two transported solutes move

  • In simple diffusion diffusion of non polar compounds across the membrane and along the concentration gradient without the involvement of protein whereas in case of facilitated diffusion membrane transport proteins that facilitate movement pf molecules across the membrane down its concentration gradient
  • Both the diffusions does not require energy

(b) Facilitated diffusion; active transport-Direction the solute moves relative to its concentration gradient

  • In facilitated diffusion membrane transport proteins that facilitate movement of molecules across the membrane down its concentration gradient without the expenditure of energy
  • Active transport drives transportation of solute against the concentration gradient across the membrane

(c) Simple diffusion; Active transport-Directions in which two transported solutes move and Direction the solute moves relative to its concentration gradient

  • In simple diffusion diffusion of non polar compouds across the membrane and along the concentration gradient without the involvement of protein and energy
  • Active transport drives transportation of solute against the concentration gradient across the membrane;secondary active transporters coupled with transportation of two solute molecules

(d) Direct active transport; Indirect active transport-Direction the solute moves relative to its concentration gradient or its electrochemical potential

  • Direct active transport use direct energy such as ATP hydrolysis,oxidation and sunlight energy
  • Indirect active transport use indirect energy such as chemical gradient,electrochemical gradient established by direct active transporters;one solute moves along the concentration gradient while other moves against the concentration gradient

(e) Symport; Antiport-Direction in which two transported solutes move

  • In symport both the solute molecules move in same direction;coupled with primary active transport(direct transport)
  • In antiport both the solutes moves in opposite direction;coupled with secondary active transport(indirect transport)

(f) Uniport; coupled transport-Directions in which two transported solutes move

  • Uniport is the transport of single solute across the membrane
  • Coupled transport is the transport of two solute molecules across the membrane;it may be symport or antiport

(g) P-type ATPase; V-type ATPase-Kinetics of solute transport

  • P-type ATPase always transport cations and undergoes phosphorylation
  • V-type ATPase(here V stands for vacuole) transport protons and no phosphorylation occurs;catalytic activity is not reversible
  • Both are types of primary active transporters
