The control of virus infection is complicated compared to bacteria since the virus   either enters into the host cells or used the host cell components to create new cells that is released to affect new cells. Hence it has been a challenge to isolate the virus particle and affect them with chemical components without causing damages to the host cells.

Hence antivirals are drugs that are designed to inhibit their activity. They will block the activity of the virus from entering the cells and make them into host. Hence D is the right option

in summer, what happens to the hurricane’s temperature, category, and speed as it travels across a body of water and then land?
IRISSAK [1]

I think it starts to get slower as soon as it starts traveling because then hurricanes wouldnt be as bad and would be long, and it could possible get worse as it travels across the water because it could be sucking up water so then it would get bigger and worse. The tempertaure will get colder because it will then start to pour and cause destruction and make it windy and very chilly.

Honey Bees have a much different social and reproductive structure as compared to humans.
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Unlike the queen bee, which has 32 chromosomes, drones have half the chromosomal charge (n= 16), so they are considered haploid.

Explanation:

The system of determination of the sex in the bees —like in other insects— is called haplodiploidy, and consists of which the females of the species possess complete charge of chromosomes, whereas the males only possess half. This is what happens with the queen bee with 32 chromosomes, while drones only have 16 chromosomes, so they are considered haploid.

Additionally, as a characteristic of haplodiploidy, males only proceed from female gametes, so they can only contribute gametes to produce females of the species.

The other options are not correct because:

  • <em>Drones, with half of the chromosomal charge, </em><u><em>cannot be diploid</em></u><em>. </em>
  • <u><em>Monosomy and trisomy</em></u><em> are defects in the distribution of chromosomes during meiosis, which imply one chromosome less or one chromosome more in the normal chromosome charge respectively.</em>
