What is the difference between a virus and bacteria in causing infection?

Biology
1 answer:
Bas_tet [7]3 years ago

Answer:

As you might think, bacterial infections are caused by bacteria, and viral infections are caused by viruses. Perhaps the most important distinction between bacteria and viruses is that antibiotic drugs usually kill bacteria, but they aren't effective against viruses.

What is the amino acid sequence of the polypeptide produced by the “normal” DNA sequence in Model 1?
ruslelena [56]

The sequence of amino acid in polypeptide is dictated by the codons in the messenger RNA molecules from which polypeptide was translated. The sequence of codons in the mRNA was in turn dictated by the sequence of codons in the DNA from which the mRNA was transcribed. The amino acids are linked covalently by peptide bonds.

State two examples of situations where active transport occurs
Cloud [144]

When something needs to be transported against its concentration gradient, or a molecule is too big to simply diffuse through a membrane, active transport has to be used. So active transport requires energy (ATP).

Examples:

1. Antiport pumps: transport one substance in one direction while transporting another substance the other way. An example of this is the sodium-potassium pump.

2. Symport pumps - uses a substance that wants to move from an area of high concentration to low concentration and carries another substance against its concentration gradient. An example of this is the sodium-glucose transport protein

3. Endocytosis - large amounts of extra cellular fluid can be taken into a cell - needs ATP to bind proteins in the cell membrane and causes them to change their shape...which eventually causes the surrounding of the fluid to be brought in (a vesicle).

4.exocytosis - opposite of above

Even a country in which the birthrate and death rate are equal can experience population growth if it also has.
grin007 [14]

Even a country in which the birthrate and death rate are equal can experience population growth if it also has immigration.

  • In evolutionary time, migration will often quickly converge gene frequencies among populations. Migration is a powerful mechanism for balancing the gene frequencies of subpopulations in a species in the absence of selection. Gene frequencies will eventually equalize if the migration rate is larger than zero.
  • Migration refers to the movement of people, groups, or populations. Migration facilitates gene flow, or the transfer of genes from one population to another, in terms of genetics. Migration—or, to be more precise, gene flow—alone will quickly bring the gene frequencies of the two populations together if they initially had distinct gene frequencies and if selection is not at work.

Therefore, immigration is the correct answer.

Natural disasters can also disrupt the environment this is called primary or secondary succession
Shalnov [3]
It would be secondary. This is because a natural disaster would cause an immediate effect on plant life in the area.
