A community of plants and animals that live and interact together in a particular region is called an ecosystem.
Answer:
The given blank can be filled with interferons.
Explanation:
The signaling molecules or the proteins that get discharged by the cell infected by the virus to protect the adjacent cells by stimulating a safeguarding defense mechanism are termed as interferons.
The mentioned proteins obstruct the proliferation of viruses and thus helps the cell in getting rid of the infection. These molecules also assist in stimulating the macrophages and the natural killer cells.
D would occur more rapidly.
Answer:
The correct answer is: E) both B and C.
Explanation:
- Bacteria and Archaea forms two distinct and different Domains in the Taxonomic classification system.
- Nuclear envelope that surrounds and protects the genetic material by forming the Nucleus is absent in both Archaea and Bacteria. Both of them possess a region called the Nucleoid where their genetic material is located.
- Plasma membrane that surrounds the cell and maintains integrity of the cell structure is present in both Bacteria and Archaea. Although the composition of lipid in the plasma membrane is different in each.
- However, they vary in their cell wall composition. The cell wall of the bacteria is rich in a compound called peptidoglycan while the cell wall of archaea lacks peptidoglycan and is rich in polysaccharides and glycoproteins.
Answer:
B. nuclease (destroys DNA and RNA)
Explanation:
Viruses are the particles that contain a protein coat called the capsid. Inside the capsid, viruses have their genetic material. Viruses may have single-stranded or double-stranded DNA molecules or single-stranded or double-stranded RNA molecules as their genetic material. Therefore, to destroy viruses, one must target their genetic material. Nucleases are enzymes that digest nucleic acids (DNA and RNA). The use of nucleases would destroy the genetic material of viruses and would be most effective to control them.
