Answer: <u><em>
How does the Ebola virus infect people?</em></u></h2>
<em><u>Ebola virus contains a type of genetic material called RNA, which is similar to DNA and contains the blueprint for assembling new virus particles. Unlike animals and plants, which also use DNA as a repository of information, viruses are not technically alive because they are incapable of replicating without help. In order to create new viruses, the virus must infiltrate a living cell, where it hijacks the host cell’s machinery to fulfill its own goals. In order to get into the cell, Ebola must travel through the cell membrane, which is a barrier that protects the cell from its environment. However, all cells need nutrients, which must have ways of entering the cell; the viruses hitch a ride into the cell via one of these established nutrient-uptake entryways. Ebola virus takes advantage of a non-specific engulfing process called macropinocytosis, which allows the virus to be “eaten” by a wave-like motion of the cell membrane (Figure 1) [2].</u></em>

Explanation:
Messenger and transfer RNA
Answer:
May not
Explanation:
Adaptation is made possible as a result of an organism being exposed to different environmental conditions. These exposure makes it adopt different techniques for its survival which eventually results in it being adapted to the condition and is then passed on as traits to its offsprings. They are then able to survive when met with such environmental condition.
When an organism is exposed to the same conditions all the time then there is lack of genetic variation and adaptation may not occur.
Answer: Selective breeding
Explanation:
Selective breeding or artificial breeding is a process that allows humans to select parents in plants and animals that have desirable traits. Such parents are bred to produce offspring that have desirable traits from both parents. Humans have bred many species of plants and animals to improve the quality of plant and animal yields in terms of crops, milk, meat, eggs, and other derivatives.
