A virus<span> is a small </span>infectious agent<span> that </span>replicates<span> only inside the living </span>cells<span> of other </span>organisms<span>. Viruses can infect all types of </span>life forms<span>, from </span>animals<span> and </span>plants<span> to </span>microorganisms<span>, including </span>bacteria<span> and </span><span>archaea
</span>While not inside an infected cell or in the process of infecting a cell, viruses exist in the form of independent particles. These viral particles<span>, also known as </span>virions<span>, consist of two or three parts: (i) the </span>genetic material<span> made from either </span>DNA<span> or </span>RNA<span>, long </span>molecules<span> that carry genetic information; (ii) a </span>protein<span> coat, called the </span>capsid<span>, which surrounds and protects the genetic material; and in some cases (iii) an </span>envelope<span> of </span>lipids<span> that surrounds the protein coat when they are outside a cell. The shapes of these virus particles range from simple </span>helical<span> and </span>icosahedral<span> forms for some virus species to more complex structures for others. Most virus species have virions that are too small to be seen with an </span>optical microscope<span>. The average virion is about one one-hundredth the size of the average </span>bacterium<span>.</span>

A plant may open and close its stomata to prevent excess water loss and maintain _____. adaptability homeostasis negative feedba
Harman [31]

The correct answer is the homeostasis.

A plant may close and open its stomata to prevent excess water loss and maintain homeostasis.

Homeostasis is termed as the tendency of organisms to maintain and automatic regulation of their internal environment to be in a stable condition.

We say that the plant is in stable condition when the fluid balance and body temperature are being kept in to a pre-set limits which include calcium ions, potassium, sodium and PH of extracellular fluid.

The natural resistance which changes the optimal condition brings about homeostasis.
