A segmented viral genome can facilitate rapid evolution of new viral strains.

Explanation:

Viruses are non-cellular entities which contain one or molecules of DNA or RNA as their genetic material enclosed inside a protein capsule.

Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites and cannot replicate outside a living cell.

The virus integrates its genome into the host genome and uses its mechanism to replicate its genome.

In other words we can say that viruses actually hijack hosts replication machinery.

The fragment of viral genome which disintegrates itself from the host genome after successful replication might carry fragments of host genome. Thus the viral genome gets modified and may evolve.

Rina8888 [55]

When a skeletal muscle relaxes,myosin head attach to actin by breaking down ATP to ADP and phosphate with the help of myosin ATPase. The myosin head forms the cross -bridges on the active site of the actin.The cross-bridge pulls the actin which slide over the myosin. The release of ADP completes the cross-bridge movements . ATP attaches to myosin, and break the actin -myosin cross-bridge. Thus breaking of ATP into ADP and phosphate help the thin filament to return to their original position.
