The capsid is the protein shell that surrounds the core of a virus where its nucleic acid is located. The capsid is made up small sub units called capsomeres.
A virus consists of a nucleic acid which may either be RNA or DNA and is found in varying quantities in the virus. It is this nucleic acid that is vital to the virus' survival that is housed in the capsid.
A drug that targets the capsid and damages it will cause the nucleic acid to leak out of the virus and into the surrounding while other fluids foreign to the virus will get in rendering the virus totally impaired, and due to this the virus cannot survive but will speedily die.
Answer: True
Explanation: The plasma membrane is a membrane the protects the cell and its environment. It regulates what goes inside and what comes out of the cell. .
Plasma membrane as a structure composed of multiple components, including phospholipid bilayer, carbohydrates, and other lipids. The phospholipids possess one head and two tails. The head is basically polar and hydrophilic (water-loving) while the tails are non-polar and hydrophobic (water-fearing).
The plasma membrane is decorated with proteins. Some protiens are extrinsic proteins that run halfway through the membrane, while others are called integral proteins that go entirely through the membrane. The function of these proteins is to serve as channels to allow the molecules to enter and leave the cell.
It primarily occurs in the leaves
Answer:
Promoter is located upstream and terminator is located downstream relative to the transcription start site.
Explanation:
Transcription start site is the site from where the transcription starts which is denoted by +1. The sequence of nucleotides which is present backword to them called upstream sequence and nucleotide sequence which is present in the forward direction of transcription start site are called downstream sequence.
Promoter sequences are present upstream to the transcription start site and are denoted with a minus sign and terminator sequence is present downstream to the transcription start site.
Answer:
BB is blue
bb is red
Bb is patchwork
Explanation:
It can't really be codominant since lowercase letters are recessive, and condomance needs 2 dominant alleles of a different types. So really it should be BB for blue, RR for red and BR for patchwork...
