You are examining a field of crop plants and notice that many of the leaves have small scattered necrotic spots on them, but non

e are completely diseased. You then examine the shoot apical meristems of the plants and notice that the most recently formed internodes and leaves are expanding to their usual size. You conclude that the infection is likely:

Answer:

Avirulent.

Explanation:

VIRULENCE is the ability of a pathogenic organism  to infects the host, leading to damages  or death of the host. The extent of these virulent effect depends on  certain chemical substances ( called Virulence factors) produced during the  pathogenic processes.

The virulence effects  is achieved  due to the ability of the virulent factor to disrupt the entire physiological mechanisms of  the organisms; e,g crop plants; though  suppression of the host immune response, disruptions of the immune mechanisms, colonization of the host DNA structure etc. Therefore the pathogenic effects suppressed the host resistance and spread throughout the host body system.

In this present scenario, the pathogenic effect of the likable bacteria; is not virulent, because

none of the d crop pant is completely diseased.

the nascent intenodes and leaves  are growing to usual size.

Consequently, the physiological and the morphological features of the crop plants are still intact. Thus the infection is AVIRULENT.

Sonja [21]

Answer:

The best way to determine if these populations form part of the same species is to study the existence of reproductive isolation between populations. Moreover, the result of an experiment based on the study of reproductive barriers may be complemented with molecular biology approaches that determine the level of sequence homology between populations

marta [7]

During your internship at Big Pharma, you discover a compound that opsonized the herpes simplex virus, reducing the duration of the outbreak. Which step of viral replication is the drug most likely interfering with

A. Attachment

B. Penetration

C. biosynthesis

D. Viral assembly/ maturation

E. Viral release is interfered

Answer: E. Viral release is interfered

Explanation:

Herpes virus is responsible for causing sores in the mouth and around it. The sores can also be found on the genitals. This virus is transmitted by sexual intercourse. The opsonization can help in reducing the time duration for the outbreak to occur.

The immunoglobulins will attack the virus particles and will have a phagocytic action on them by engulfing them. Thus this provides a barrier to the release of new viral particles in the host genome and provides immunity to the body.
