What biotic and abiotic factors control viral activity in the sea

Answer:

The abiotic and biotic factors that control viral activity at sea are:  Sunlight, presence of bacteria, presence of eukaryotic microorganisms and presence of suspended particles.

Explanation:

As you already know, viruses are obligatory acellular particles and tiny parasites. They can be present in different environments, including the sea, where they can establish viral activity in different environments.

Viruses are composed of a nucleic acid molecule and a protein coat. This nucleic acid is highly changeable, being able to modify the viral activity of several forms.

Under the sea the main factors that can cause these mutations that modify viral activity are:

  • Solar radiation, through UV waves. These waves can destabilize the nucleic acid causing a mutation.
  • These viruses can "swallow" particles suspended in the aquatic environment. These particles can become involved with the nucleic acid, modifying it.
  • The presence of bacteria capable of parasitizing a virus through its enzymes can also cause changes in viral activity. Just like eukaryotic microorganisms.

<h2>Biotic and Abiotic Factors Controls Viral Activity in Sea </h2>

Firstly, biotic are living components and abiotic are non living. Abiotic are the temperatures of ore and other items that are non-living. In the stream, the biotic factor can be small toads, shrubs, fish anything existing in the sea. In the sea, the biotic factors are any great fish or sea beings existing in that region including the any tiny bodies. In this way, all factors and components control viral activity in the sea.

What organisms can get up to 10 centermeters in size
Svetach [21]
<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

A Single-Celled Organism

<h2><u>Explanation:</u></h2><h3><u></u></h3>

The giants of the deep are so-called xenophyophores, sponge-like animals that—like amoebas—are made of just one cell. They were found during a July research expedition run by the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in La Jolla, California.

The animals are about four inches (ten centimeters) long—among the largest single-celled organisms known to exist.

The creatures were discovered at depths of 6.6 miles (10.6 kilometers). That breaks a previous record for xenophyophores found in the New Hebrides Trench at 4.7 miles (7.6 kilometers).

Xenophyophores represent, <u>"one of the few groups of organisms found exclusively in the deep sea,"</u> said Lisa Levin, a Scripps oceanographer who studied the expedition's data.

<u>"If any creatures should be able to live at the ocean's greatest depth, then xenophyophores certainly should be among them."</u>

The Mariana xenophyophores were seen in footage from Dropcams, free-falling devices equipped with lights and digital video that were developed by the National Geographic Society. (The Society owns National Geographic News.)

Protected by thick walls of pressure-resistant glass, the Dropcams were baited to attract whatever marine life might be lurking in the deep. Expedition scientists also saw, for instance, the deepest-swimming jellyfish to date. (Watch a video of the expedition.)

<u>"The deep sea is the largest biome on Earth and holds much of the diversity on the planet—[yet it's still] largely undescribed,"</u> Levin said in an email to National Geographic News.

(Also see, <u>"Pictures: Hard-to-See Sea Creatures Revealed."</u>)

According to Jon Copley, a marine biologist at the U.K.'s University of Southampton, <u>"many of the major discoveries in deep-sea biology have come from making direct observations at the seafloor."</u>

<u>"The Dropcam is a great tool for the future, because it can help us see more of what's down there for less cost than using ROVs or submersibles,"</u> he said via email.

For instance, <u>"finding xenophyophores far deeper than before shows how much we still have to learn about our oceans depths and their inhabitants."</u>

Tullis Onsott, an expert in deep-sea microorganisms at Princeton University, also called the xenophyophore discovery, <u>"fantastic."</u>
