Answer:

Attachment stage

Explanation:

Viruses are organisms that are incapable of replicating on their own, instead they infect a living host in order to make use of its transcriptional, replication and gene expression abilities to multiply. This process of infection characterizes the reproductive life cycle of the viral cell.

Normally, viruses are specific when infecting their hosts but they generally commence the infection cycle with ATTACHMENT. In this stage, the viral cell with the aid of its proteinous capsid binds to specific receptor site on the cell membrane of its host cell before making entry by incorporating its genetic material.

Bond [772]

The correct answer is: B) "All roads lead to Rome"

Citric acid cycle also called tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle and Krebs cycle is a central process in cellular respiration. Citric acid cycle that connects carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism so “all the roads” from the different metabolic pathways come to this cycle.

Acetyl-CoA which is produced through the oxidation of pyruvate (pyruvate is a product of glycolysis) enters the cycle which then produces reduced electron carriers NADH, FAD2 and energy molecule ATP. These electron carriers will then pass their electrons into the electron transport chain and, through the process of oxidative phosphorylation, will produce more ATP.
