Viruses are particles of DNA surrounded by a protein coat in which way do viruses depend on living cells

Biology
1 answer:
Phantasy [73]3 years ago
4 0
Viruses need to infect living cells of other organisms in order to replicate their genetic material. When not in an infected living cell, they are considered independent particles, in the form of DNA surrounded by a protein coat. Only when a virus enters and infects a living cell, it can then start its reproductive cycle. It uses the host's (infected cell) replication system, to replicate its own DNA or RNA and create the necessary viral proteins to create more viruses. The newly created viruses are then able to infect other living cells.

Which refers to swelling as a result of inflammation?
Bad White [126]

Answer: Edema

Explanation:

The swelling that is caused as the result of inflammation is known as Edema. Just after an injury takes place the traumatized area becomes red, painful and warm. It also starts to swell.

This swelled area is also known as Edema which is caused due to acute response of acute inflammation.

This response is trigerred by the injured tissues. When the body starts healing then, change in blood flow takes place and swelling is also cured.

But sometimes it is so acute that it restricts the normal blood flow and movement of the affected area.
