Biology

Fittoniya [83]3 years ago

Answer:

B. Viruses must commandeer the mechanisms of a host cell in order to reproduce

Explanation:

Virus is an organism that is incapable of replicating on its own without infecting a living host cell. A viral cell is dependent on a living host to replicate and express its genes. Hence, the infection cycle of a virus is its reproductive life cycle.

Other living organisms e.g plant, bacteria, fungi etc. have the ability to reproduce i.e. multiply on their own through asexual or sexual means. However, on the contrary, a virus must infect a living host, hijack the replicational abilities of the host cell in order to reproduce. Based on this, a virus employs a lysogenic or lytic cycle or both on its host to reproduce.

In a species of chickens, incomplete dominance between alleles for black (B) and white(w) feathers
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

1/2

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for feather color in chickens. The black allele (B) is incompletely dominant over the white allele (W). This means that the allele B will not mask the phenotypic expression of allele W, hence, a third intermediate blue phenotype (BW) will be produced.

According to the question, if two blue chickens are crossed i.e. BW × BW, the gametes B and W will be produced by each parent. Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following offsprings will be produced:

BB, BW and WW in the ratio 1:2:1

BB is black, BW is blue, WW is white. Hence, the probability of producing a blue chicken from this cross is 1/2.

Carbohydrates may be defined as the polymers of the sugars and one of the most important biomolecule of the living organisms. Carbohydrates plays an important structural and functional role.

Carbohydrates are always present on the exoplasmic surface of the plasma membrane. The are present in the association with the proteins and lipids as glycoproteins and glycolipids. These carbohydrates acts as the signaling molecule that display information on cell surface.
