Write a paragraph about why viruses are alive
padilas [110]
Well, to be fair, this is a bit of a tough question because it's in question by some of the leading microbiologists right now. 

But one argument for this is their ability to reproduce. Note that one of the leading arguments for something to be alive is that they are subject to evolution and hence natural selection: the statements for which argue that there has to be differentiation within a species (meaning there has to be different forms of each virus within a type of virus) and there has to be reproduction-- which is where the problem comes along (because viruses could only reproduce while in a host). So one argument that can be made that they are in-fact alive, is that they reproduce and is subject to evolution. 

Do know however that this is HIGHLY controversial-- and if your teacher asks it, it's most likely not a right-or-wrong answer

If he does do it that way, maybe you could show off your brainy-bio knowledge by explaining to him why it shouldn't be so!

Kobotan [32]

The risk of schizophrenia among biological relatives is greatest for identical twins. This is a true statement.

<h3>What is schizophrenia?</h3>

Schizophrenia is a neurological disorder that causes an affected individual to lose touch of reality.

Schizophrenia can be caused by the following:

  • Genetics: Gene defects caused by mutation such as deletions or duplications of genetic material increases risk of schizophrenia.

  • Environment: Urbanicity, migration, cannabis, childhood traumas, infectious agents, obstetrical complications and psychosocial factors

  • Brain chemistry and circuit

  • Brain abnormalities: Impaired communication between brain regions leads to the associated symptoms and cognitive changes.

According to research, the risk of schizophrenia among biological relatives is greatest for identical twins because they are genetically identical.
