Pressure Flow. The mechanism by which sugars are transported through the phloem, from sources to sinks, is called pressure flow. At the sources (usually the leaves), sugar molecules are moved into the sieve elements (phloem cells) through active transport.

Contact [7]

Answer:

This new food is a carbohydrate

Explanation:

<em>Carbohydrates (also known as saccharide) general formula is CH2On, this means they are molecules that only contain carbon (C), hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O). </em>In the basic form, these sugars are known as monosaccharides, they can combine no form more complex sugars like disaccharide (2), oligosaccharides (2-10) or polysaccharides (>10).

Therefore we can conclude that this new food is a carbohydrate.

The lytic life cycle ends when the virus load is expelled from the host cell. But, to be released, the virus have to escape from the host cell's plastic membrane, usually by changing the osmotic change, and making it explode.

This releases the viruses into the extracellular matrix, allowing them to infect other tissue cells.

How might an error during transcription affect the protein that is produced?

Alina [70]
