Suppose virus A has a viral genome of 19,000 bp, and 10,000,000,000 viruses are replicated in an infected individual in a single
Kitty [74]

Answer:

1 day.

Explanation:

From the given information:

The rate of mutation induced by RNA polymerase is:

\implies \dfrac{1}{10000}= 0.0001

Since the genome comprise of 19000 bp;

To complete a single replication, the viral cycle induce: = \dfrac{19000}{1000}

= 1.9 \ mutation \\ \\  \simeq 2 \  mutation

However, in a single day; 10,000,000,000 viruses are reported to be replicated.

Hence, if a virus has 2 mutations; Then 10,000,000,000 virus will have:

= \dfrac{10,000,000,000}{2} \\ \\ = \text{5000000000 \ mutations \ in \ a \ half \ day which is half} \\ \\ \text{ the given no of the replicated virus}

SO, to round this up to whole number, it will take 1 day (s) to overcome the therapy.

Explanation:

The ecosystem will fall out of balance because once you remove the top predator, the plant-eaters will grow in numbers, they will eat all of the vegetation, and will either need to adapt or die. Predators are very important, as is everything in the food chain
