Strike441 [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

E) genetic material composed of nucleic acid

Explanation:

It's not A because the virus can't live on its own, depends on a host to live and reproduce.

It's not B because viruses are only a fragment of DNA, or RNA cover in a protein capsule, they don't have ribosomes.

It's not C because again, viruses don't have a metabolism.

It's not D because viruses need a host to reproduce. Bacteria can make it on its own.

The correct one is E. Both genetic material in viruses, and bacteria are composed of nucleic acid.

gayaneshka [121]

It's common knowledge that trees become bare during winter, but not many people know how trees keep themselves alive during the bitter cold. ... The first part of dormancy is when trees lose their leaves. They don't make food in the winter, so they have no use for masses of leaves that would require energy to maintain.
