The answer to your question would be option 2: Parasitism.

Parasitism is the act of an organism feeding off another organism, that does not kill the host organism at first but may eventually, if not treated.

Predation is the act of immediately killing another organism for your benefit.

Mutualism is where two organism benefit each other when involved.

Commensalim is two organism where only one organism benefits, but it does not give any affect to the other organism.

Thus, I feel Parasitism would best fit your description!

Hope this helps!

Which of the following nitrogen bases is unique to RNA?
Shkiper50 [21]
<h2>Answer</h2>

The right option is (A).

<h2>Explanation</h2>

The RNA gets its information from DNA to synthesise the proteins. It is different from DNA also due to the difference in one nitrogen basis as uracil. The thymine, the nitrogen basis that is only present in DNA is replaced with uracil to form RNA coding. The uracil also contains the same features as thymine has in DNA strains. Uracil makes a double H-bond with the adenine but does not contain CH4 group which is present in thymine.

1. Some substances passes through small holes in the surface cell membrane. This is called diffusion and does not require cell to expend energy.In this way the passive transport occur if the cell doo not expend any energy. 2.In active transport,the particles move across the cell membrane from slower concentration to higher concentration . Active transport is the energy requiring process of pumping molecules and ions across membranes uphill against a gradient.This process uses the energy of ATP. 3. Endocytosis and Exocytosis are important mechanisms for bringing substances into and out of a cell.The vesicles fuse with the plasma membrane ,causing the contents of the vesicles to spill outside the cell.
