Answer: C. capsid

Explanation:

All viruses have the same basic structure: a core of nucleic acid surrounded by protein. Individual viruses contain only a single type of nucleic acid, either DNA or RNA. Viruses are frequently classified by the nature of their genomes. RNA-based viruses are known as retroviruses. Nearly all viruses form a protein sheath, or capsid, around their nucleic acid core. The capsid is formed of one to a few different protein molecules duplicated many times. In some viruses, specific enzymes are stored within the capsid.

Specialized enzymes called _____ polymerases can bypass distortions in the DNA template but tend to introduce replication errors
Yuri [45]

Answer:

The correct answer is: translesion.

Explanation:

Also called DNA polymerase V, the translesion polymerase is responsible for the repair of the DNA in prokaryotes like Escherichia coli.

These special enzymes repair DNA lesion during DNA replication. If the enzyme fails, the damage in the DNA can lead to the death of the cell.

Replication in prokaryotes is much more prone to errors than replication in eukaryotes, one of the reasons being this polymerase not being as effective as the polymerase in charge of repairing eukaryotic DNA, the DNA polymerase beta.

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Seizure is an abnormal episode of motor, sensory, autonomic, or psychic activity resulting from a sudden, abnormal, uncontrolled electrical discharge from cerebral neurons.

Explanation:

Seizure is also formally known as an epileptic seizure which it's symptoms involve uncontrolled body movements mostly with every part of the body and loss of consciousness. Epileptic seizure lasts for the maximum of two minutes before the person returns to a normal state. Bladder control however, is usually absent at this stage. Epileptic seizure can be caused by either provocation or without provocation

In provocation, the causes are very low blood sugar and blood sodium, severe fever, brain infection or concussion. Without provocation; brain injury or tumor and a stroke.

When a seizure lasts more than a maximum of two minutes, it is declared an emergency but some seizures do last for about five minutes and it is regarded as normal. There hasn't been any form of cure for epileptic seizures but there are temporary treatments which can prevent frequent seizures.
