Aleksandr [31]3 years ago

Answer:

Because they can only reproduce in a living cell

Explanation:

Virus is an organism that is incapable of replicating on its own without a living host. A virus infects a living host and makes use of Its replicational ability to produce new virions. A virus consists of a genetic material surrounded by a Protein called CAPSID. It does not possess the characteristics of other living organisms.

This means that it does not carry out any of the features a living cell undergoes e.g reproduction, respiration etc. Due to this reason, it is not classified as a living thing. They don't possess organnelles that carry out this peculiar functions.

A virus is considered a peculiar microorganism because it can only live and reproduce in a living host cell.

What controls how high and low tides will be
alekssr [168]

Answer:

The moon.

Explanation:

High tides and low tides are caused by the Moon. The Moon's gravitational pull generates something called the tidal force. The tidal force causes Earth—and its water—to bulge out on the side closest to the Moon and the side farthest from the Moon.

What is a possible effect of an error during transcription?
Leviafan [203]

A possible effect of an error during transcription is the wrong amino acid chain, will be produced.

Option D

<h3><u>Explanation: </u></h3>

The "wrong amino acid chain", will be produced as a possible effect of an error during transcription. A mutated set of proteins will start getting produced. They will have different or faulty functioning. In some cases, they won't have any functions of their own.

To avoid the possibility of an error, the transcript goes through a process of proofreading which further eliminates the chances of a wrong protein being developed.

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer

          The three metabolic pathways that make up aerobic respiration are really all parts of one larger pathway because the products of early pathways (like NADH) become <u>utilize</u> in the last one.

Explanation

         Aerobic respiration is that type of respiration in which glucose molecule is broken down into CO2 and H2O in the presence of oxygen and 36 or 38 ATP molecules are produced.

Aerobic respiration complete in four main steps:

1. Glycolysis

                  In this step glucose is broken down into 2 molecules of pyruvate acid along with the production of 2 ATP molecules and 2NADH.

2. Oxidation of pyruvate

                In this step pyruvate are oxidized in the presence of co-enzyme A to become Acetyl Co-enzyme A.  Again 2NADH are formed in this step.

3. Kreb Cycle

            It occus in mitochondria. Here acetyle coenzyme A enter Carbon fixation, reduction and regeneration phase. In this cycle 6 NADH, 2FADH2 and 2ATP are formed.

4. Electron transport chain

            All NADH that are produced in above steps get oxidize and help in the production of ATP along with the release of electron and proton that help in the formation of water.

all of the following are reasons why friendships are more highly valued by older people in late adulthood than family relationsh
Leviafan [203]

There are no choices but the reason why we tend to value friends as we grow older is because these are bonds that we create on our own.  These are people who have been there for us throughout our lives. They are our link with the outside world since they are not our family members.  The longer we are friends with others, the deeper that bond becomes.
