The major difference between viruses and living things are that most living things can reproduce independently, whereas viruses must infect living cells in order to reproduce. The correct answer is C.
Ans.
HD (Huntington's disease) is a genetic neurological disorder that occurs due to damage and death of brain cells. it is caused by an autosomal dominant mutation in HTT (huntingtin) gene, having a trinucleotide repeat section that makes HTT protein.
The mutation leads to an increase in this nucleotide repeat count, associated with formation of altered or mutated huntingtin protein. These altered proteins show deleterious affect on brain cells and result in Huntington's disease.
Thus, the correct answer is 'option A). a mutated gene.'
Plasma contains albumins that need we need to maintain osmotic balance
B and D. The xylem and the phloem make up the vascular tissue of plants and transport water, sugar, and other important substances around a plant.
