Infer why it is more difficult to make an antiviral drug that fights a virus that replicates through the lysogenic cycle than it

is to make one that fights a virus that replicates through the lytic cycle.

Answer:

In the lysogenic cycle, the viral genome gets incorporated into the host genome and replicates with the host genome. In the lysogenic cycle, no proteins and enzymes of the virus are formed while in the lytic cycle protein of viral capsid form and new phages generate in the host cell.

So as the viral genome integrates into the host genome in the lysogenic cycle, therefore, it is difficult for any drug to differentially act on the viral genome. So there are great chances for drugs to target the host genome in the host cell.  

But in virus that replicates through lytic cycle drugs can selectively act on viral enzyme and proteins. Therefore it is difficult to make a drug that affects lysogenic virus.

You must pack food that has high concentrations of fat and protein. Food like granola bars and canned meat are a good source of energy and heat. This is because the body breaks this food down easily converting it into usable energy. Though some people would suggest that you pack food that are high in carbohydrates, fats and proteins are long-term sources of energy that you would need for your hiking trip.

crimeas [40]

Answer:

50%

Explanation:

Both parent's genotype is Bb because they are hairless and alive.

If it has a homozygous dominant genotype (BB), the dog will die in utero.

If it has a heterozygous genotype (Bb), the dog will be hairless but won't die.

If it has a homozygous dominant genotype (bb), the dog will have hair.

The ratio of BB:Bb:bb is 1:2:1 meaning that there is a 50% probability of having a live hairless puppy.

Hope this helps! <3
