Answer:

The envelope come from the host cell membrane as the virus leaves the host cell

Explanation:

A virus is an organism that is incapable of replicating on its own without infecting a living host. A virus consists of a genetic material (DNA or RNA) , a protein coat called CAPSID, and sometimes some viruses possess an envelope, which is an outer covering or enclosure. Viruses that possess this envelope are referred to as ENVELOPED VIRUS.

The virus lacks the ability to produce any structure, hence, they gain this envelope made of phospholipid from the cell membrane of the host they infect. During the infection cycle of a virus, a process called budding enables a portion of the host's plasma membrane to cover or encapsulate the virion cells, hence, making them enveloped in the process.

1. How do artificial stabilization and development impact shorelines? Explain.

lora16 [44]

Explanation:

Natural shorelines are the undeveloped fringe areas along the edge of a waterbody, which connect the shallow aquatic portion of the waterbody with adjacent upland. These riparian areas provide important environmental functions, such as regulating water quality (including temperature, clarity, nutrients, and contaminants) and sustaining critical habitat for a variety of aquatic and terrestrial organisms (including invertebrates, fish, amphibians, reptiles, shorebirds and waterfowl, and mammals).

For decades, "traditional" shoreline stabilization methods have centered on "hard" construction approaches such as vertical concrete, metal, or wood break-walls, gabions (stone-filled wire baskets) and rip rap (loose rocks or stones). Biologists and engineers now realize that in addition to creating a physical barrier, these hardened vertical or near-vertical structures reflect wave energy rather than absorb it, thereby worsening turbulence and increasing erosion in front of, under and adjacent to the "fix".

The effects of turbulence and erosion are not as severe when rip rap is used because it absorbs some of the energy from moving water. However, depending on its size and placement, rip rap still can create a barrier to many wildlife species, and, as with solid structures, reduces vegetated habitat.

The adverse effects of traditional shoreline stabilization methods can be significant, as hard erosion-control solutions do not provide the water quality or habitat benefits of a natural or restored vegetated shoreline.

New ecology research reports that different ski slope construction methods can greatly impact mountainside ecology. Grading removes more vegetation than clearing and makes the soil less conducive for plant growth, which results in more erosion.

Conclusion

Is artificial stabilization and development really working?

Methods such as seawalls do actually help to protect shorelines from being flooded by strong waves, but if the wave bounces off the wall, there will.be more erosion.

Developers continue to attempt to protect our terrain but it is most likely not helping as much as they hoped it would.

Which of the following describes the difference between nitrogen-14 and nitrogen-15?

Snowcat [4.5K]

Some of these can easily be eliminated by knowing that both nitrogen 14 and nitrogen 15 are isotopes ( same element, with the same amount of protons, but with different numbers of neutrons) of nitrogen. So if the only difference between nitrogen 14, 15 , and regular nitrogen is the amount of neutrons...how many protons and electrons should both nitrogen 14 and 15 have? After thinking, you should be able to eliminate A, B,and C.

What was the experimental variable we tested in the lodine Clock Reaction?

malfutka [58]

Answer:Experiment 1084-04: lodine Clock Reaction Purpose Determine the rate law for an iodine clock reaction and study the influence of st on that reaction abruptly that it can be as startling as the sudden sound of an alarm clock, hence the clock reaction Background Information chemical equations can be written for chemical reactions, only some will proceed while others do not. Among the ones that do proceed some reactions occur as soon as reactants are mixed, while others occur over minutes, hours, or n over several years. What are the controlling in predicting if a reaction will take place and the speed at which it will? Thermodynamics can answer the question, "Will the reaction take place?" Once the reaction is capable of proceeding kinetics can answer the other question, "How fast You will study the rate of the reduction of potassium persulfate, KoS Os, with sodium iodide, Nal. The net ionic equation for the reaction is eve The rate law for this reaction is in the form of And you will need to determine the reaction orders a and b, as well as the rate constant, k. Keep in mind that exponents can not be determined by jus looking at the chemical equation the reaction will take place? The rate of a reaction is defined as the increase in molar concentration of product of a reaction per unit time or the decrease in molar concentration of reectant per unit time. The usual unit for the rate is moles per liter per sec (mol/L s or M/s). Experimentally, it has been found that a reaction rate depends on the concentrations of the reactants. Usually a higher reactant concentration increases chance of collision among the reactants per unit time causing a faster reaction rate. An equation describing the relationship between the reaction rate and the concentration of the reactants You will need a way to determine how much of the reactants were spent over the given time period. Preferably, the concentrations of the reactants should not change too much; therefore the reaction rate can be represented by the initial concentrations of reactants (the initial-rate method). In this experiment, we will couple another reaction that consumes the product, 12 very quickly. The new reaction is the reduction of is called a rate law. For the elementary reaction Note that l2, which was produced in reaction (1) is consumed as fast as it is produced by reaction (2) to regenerate two l. i.e. [门is kept constant. By keeping [S203-9 much smaller than the initial concentration of S,0, we can assure [S20,1 is also kept nearly constant when S203 is completely consumed. At this point, the 12 is no longer eliminated by the reaction and starts to accumulate. This point is signaled by sudden appearance of the dark color from the interaction of l2 with starch indicator. We can measure the time elapsed till the color appears Rate k [AIB] The proportionality constant, k, is called the ate constant in the relationship between the rate nd concentrations. The rate constant has a fixed alue as long as the reaction temperature is held nstant. The exponents, a and b, are called the action order, and are frequently, but not always, egers. More importantly, they must be termined experimentally In this experiment you will determine the rate an iodine clock reaction, and study the effects of perature and a catalyst to the reaction rate ugh there are several versions of an iodine k reaction, all of them share a common feature: completion of the reaction is signaled by the en appearance of a dark purple color. This is characteristic of the interaction between cular iodine and starch. When the reaction is ed out correctly, this color will appear so According to the reaction stoichiometries of reactions (1) and (2), two molecules of S203 are required to counteract the consumption of one molecule of S20a2. Since S2032 would have been completely consumed when the dark purple color appeared, the Δ[SO ] should be % of the initial concentration of S203 15-08-2] = ½ initial [S,03-21
