Capsid is the component of a virus that is lacking in its cell

A capsid is the protein shell that surrounds a virus. Capsids functions by protecting the nucleic acids of a virus while interacting with the host environment. Capsids are made up of many oligomeric structural subunits that contains the protein; protomers. Capsids are generally grouped based on their structure. The common ones are helical and icosahedral.

Which of the following is a radical?<br> O <br> H20<br> OH<br> H
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is C) OH</em>

Explanation:

In the field of chemistry, radicals can be described as atoms, molecules or ions which have at least one unpaired electron.

The formation of a radical occurs when a single covalent bond breaks so that each of the atoms that had been involved in the formation of the covalent bond can have an unpaired electron. Examples of radicals include OH, NH4+ etc.

Other option, like option B, is not true because a molecule of water does not have any unpaired electrons in its valence shell.

Dr. Paul Ehrlich observed that the differential stain developed by Dr. Gram suggested bacteria could be killed differentially by
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

The correct answer is Glycocalyx, ribosome and cell wall.

Explanation:

Glycocalyx is mainly found in bacteria that makes a protective covering outside the cell wall in the form of capsule of bacteria and provide protection to bacteria from host immune cell.  

Bacterial ribosomes are different from human ribosomes. Bacteria contain 70s ribosome while humans contain 80s ribosome so ribosomes are potential targets for many drugs present today.

Bacterial cell contain cell wall which is made up of peptidoglycan or lipopolysaccharide but human cell does not contain a cell wall, therefore, many drugs are designed to destroy cell wall of bacteria like penicillin.

So glycocalyx, ribosomes, and cell wall can be potential targets for Dr. Ehrlich's "magic bullets" due to significant difference or absence from humans.
