An example of potential energy is 1. The air in an inflated balloon.

Potential energy is stored energy. The air in the inflated balloon has elastic potential energy because it is being stored in the ballon. If the mouth of the inflated balloon is released or if the balloon is popped, the potential energy in the balloon transforms into kinetic energy.
All of the other answer choices are examples of kinetic energy or energy in motion. The wrecking ball, boulder, and water are all moving which means that they all contain kinetic energy, not potential energy.

What characteristic of viruses distinguishes them from cells?
Helga [31]

Answer: Viruses, although not living things, do show some characteristics that they are living. Because they can't reproduce by themselves (without a host), viruses are not considered living. They are made of proteins and glycoproteins like cells are. They contain genetic information needed to produce more viruses in the form of DNA or RNA.

They are acellular, that is, they contain no cytoplasm or cellular organelles. They carry out no metabolism on their own and must replicate using the host cell's metabolic machinery.
