The correct answer is option (C) instructions for making more viruses.

Viruses are the tiny infectious particles that survive and reproduce in the presence of other host cells. The genetic material of viruses can be the DNA or the RNA. Most of the viruses have RNA as the genetic material.

The genetic material of viruses have instuctions to make new viruses. When a virus infects the host cell, the protein coat of the virus called the capsid surrounding the genetic material is removed releasing the viral genetic material. The genetic material then synthesizes an mRNA (transcription) which is used to make the host cell sythesize the viral components followed by the synthesis of the proteins (translation). Thus, the new genetic material and the proteins formed is assembled and the new viruses are released.

UNO [17]

Answer:

The correct answers are options B, D and E.

Explanation:

One of the essential parts of the innate immune system is the complement system. This system performs an essential function in elevating the tendency of antibodies and phagocytic cells to eliminate the pathogens. There are three biochemical pathways, which instigate the complement system that comprises the classical, alternative, and lectin complement pathway.  

The fundamental activities of the complement system are opsonization, cell lysis, chemotaxis, and agglutination. The process of cytolysis takes place through the complement pathway by the generation of membrane attack complex in the raiding cells. The complement pathway also leads to inflammation.

The question is stated incorrectly. The correct question is as follows;

The site of intercellular communication between a neuron and another cell is the.

Answer:

Synapse.

Explanation:

Neurons have dendrites, cell body and axons. Millions of neurons are present in the nervous system. Different types of neuron are sensory neuron, motor neuron and interneuron.

Synapse may be defined as the gap between the two consecutive neurons. The junction between the two neurons that helps in the intercellular communication. The neurotransmitters are diffused directly and transmit information through these synapse.

Thus, the correct answer is synapse.
