HIV can remain latent for several years and not cause any symptoms in its host. What viral reproduction cycle is occurring durin
lakkis [162]

Answer:

The lytic cycle.

Explanation:

<u>HIV is a retrovirus</u> that has a special enzyme called transcriptase reverse, which can synthesize DNA using RNA as a template. This replication system is particularly useful for the virus because the DNA synthesized from the RNA viral genome can be then integrated into the human chromosomes and stay inactive for years. This is called a lysogenic cycle and is characterized by a latency of the virus and an integration to the host DNA.

When there is a triggering event, <u>this latent virus can be excised from the human chromosome and start producing copies of itself using the host machinery.</u> <u>Then the virions are assembled and after that they lyse the host cell and release new infective units that can then infect neighboring cells. </u>This is called the lytic cycle of the virus and is the reproduction cycle that occurs when a person moves into the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) stage of HIV infection.

Describe how water’s unique properties helps a polar bear to survive. Include each of the properties of water and how each of th
KonstantinChe [14]

the very basic properties of water

conducts heat

neutral pH

high surface tension

high specific heat

good solvent

how does this help a polar bear, some of it is a stretch but possible benefits

pH - good drinking water, good for marine ecosystem for food

high specific heat - can absorb lots of heat before the temperature rises, polar bears exist naturally in cold environments. (ice) - maybe can tie this in with the natural hibernation cycle

high surface tension - I'm assuming the polar bear walks on the ice at times to get fish

as a good solvent - its probably good that most things dissolve in water, otherwise we would have a lot of floating gunk on top of the water

outside of this, can't give you much more. it has been noted in Shishmaref Village that the ice caps melting is leading to a lack of water in higher mountain areas and polar bears are coming down from the mountain ice cap areas to find food and water
