Answer:

Th correct answer is A. Capsid

Explanation:

T-2 phage is a bacteriophage which is virulent to E.coli which means T2 phage infects E.coli. The genetic material of T2 phage is linear DNA which is double-stranded. The genetic material of T2 phage is enclosed in a protein coat which is called capsid.

This capsid protects the genetic material of bacteriophage by any enzymatic digestion, helps the virus to attach the host cell and helps the virion to penetrate the cell membrane of the host cell and inject its genetic material in the host cell. Therefore capsid is the correct answer.

dsp73
The length would be 2, the width would be 2, and the height would be 2. The formula for volume is length x width x height. So, you would multiply 2 x 2 x 2. The answer would be 8 micrometers cubed.

photosynthesis and cellular respiration both use electron transport chains. what is the source of electrons for photosynthesis a
goldfiish [28.3K]

Water serves as an electron source in the electron transport process of photosynthesis. The electron is extracted from water by using solar energy.

What is the electron transport chain's source of energy?

The electron transport chain uses the energy released by oxygen and reduced compound reactions such as cytochrome c and (indirectly) NADH and FADH2 to pump protons into the intermembranous space, producing the electrochemical gradient over the inner mitochondrial membrane.

In photosynthesis, water is split to produce electrons in the presence of sunlight, a process known as the photolysis of water. The electrons are finally transferred to NADP+ by the chloroplast electron transport chain, where they are reduced to NADPH.

Therefore, In aerobic respiration, electrons from NADH and FADH2 are transferred to oxygen by the mitochondrial electron transport chain to reduce oxygen in the water.
