Answer:

Lysis of the host cell

Explanation:

A virus must infect a host cell in order to reproduce. The steps that make up this infection process is called the life cycle of the virus. Virus can either kill their host (lytic) or not kill them but are copied along their hosts DNA instead (lysogenic).

In the lytic cycle, the typical virus hijacks its host cell and uses the cell's resources to make a lots of new virions, causing the cell to lyse (burst) and die in the process.

The stages of the viral lytic cycle involves the virus binding to a specific receptor on the host cell and injects its DNA genome into the cytoplasm of its host cell. It hijacks the host cell to replicate, transcibe and translate the necessary viral components. The viral DNA is copied and expressed to make proteins e.g capsid proteins. New viral particle are made separately from the host's DNA. To liberate newly made virions, the host cell wall is disrupted by viral proteins such as lysozyme. This disruption allows water into the cell, making it expand and burst.

During lysis (bursting), hundreds of new virions are released out of the host cell.

Imagine a microbial cell that normally carries out aerobic respiration has encountered a low oxygen environment and may die if t
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

a. Oxygen performs an essential role in the mentioned microbial cell in a manner that it takes part in the procedure of glycolysis, Krebs cycle, and electron transport chain, which eventually assists in the production of energy from food substrates and this generation of energy helps the cell to survive.  

In the existence of oxygen, sugar gets dissociated through glycolysis to generate pyruvate, which again in the existence of oxygen is transformed into acetyl CoA. This moves into the Krebs cycle and gets dissociated to water and carbon dioxide generating ATP through ETC. This generation of ATP helps the cell to survive.  

In low oxygen surrounding or in the absence of oxygen, some of the aerobic microbes can switch their respiratory pathway and carry on the process of fermentation and anaerobic respiration to produce energy and thrive. However, the mentioned microbial cell, which when it comes in contact with the low oxygen environment cannot carry out fermentation process and would die eventually.  

b. This organism can be classified as obligate aerobes as they always need oxygen and do not possess the tendency to carry out the process of anaerobic respiration or fermentation under the absence of oxygenic environment.

Explain the mechanism of the movement of the human forelimbs
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

Forelimb protraction starts with a rapid flexion of the shoulder joint bringing the humerus close to its maximum cranial rotation angle, almost in parallel to the mid-sagittal plane. This position has already been reached by the middle of the swing phase.
