Answer:

a. leaves that close when touched.

Explanation:

Venus flytrap is an insectivorous plant. Its scientific name is Dionaea muscipula. It has a specialised system by which it traps and kills insects. Venus flytrap is an autotroph (makes its own food through photosynthesis), but it absorbs nitrogen and phosphorous from insects because the soil in which it grows lack these elements. It has steel-trap shaped leaves which secrete sweet-smelling nectar and when insects land on its leaves for the nectar insects get trapped.

Why would a drug the damages capsids help treat a viral infection

goblinko [34]

Because by damaging capsids, there is no place for the bad DNA to be stored. So the drug destroys the DNA so no more of the virus can be stored in the body.

9. Which structure helps animal cells maintain their shape?

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

D. Cytoskeleton

Explanation:

It is really none of these answers. The correct answer would be a microtubule which is a component of the cytoskeleton which is in the cytoplasm.

The Cell Walls are only in plant cells so that won't work. So, A wouldn't work.

Chromosomes are the things that both your parents give you as genes. They have nothing to do with keeping the structure of the cell alright.

Cytoplasm cannot be a answer choice because, the thing is in it but, it doesn't do anything with it. So C wouldn't work either

The correct answer is microtubule however, it is a component of cytoskeleton so therefore, that is your answer.

The lac operon controls the transcription of a group of genes involved in metabolizing lactose in E. coli. A group of scientists

Xelga [282]

Answer:

The correct answer would be - medium with lactose present and glucose absent.

Explanation:

There are genes present in lac operon that takes part in the lactose metabolism. These genes expressed only if a medium has lactose in absence of glucose.

In the absence of glucose and lactose is present, due to inducer the lac repressor is removed from the operator. This leads to the binding of CAMP to DNA as the CAMP levels are high. It helps in high transcription levels b binding RNA polymerase to promotor.
