Answer:

The correct answer is "They lack an independent metabolism"

Explanation:

Viruses are usually active/alive in a living environment and become inactive in non-living environment; these is because they rely on the metabolic activities of the invaded living environment/cell. This property is a sharp contrast to normal living cells that are able to metabolize different substances independently using several organelles.

What are the functions of water in the human body
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

In some bunnies, the gene for fur color is controlled by condominance. The allele for gray color is G and the allele white color
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Genotype gray bunnies: GG

Genotype white bunnies: WW

Genotype gray and white bunnies: GW

Explanation:

In diploid species (2n), organisms receive one gene copy (allele) from each parent. Codominance is a relationship that occurs when both alleles of the same gene show dominance. In consequence, the expression of both alleles in heterozygous individuals results in a new phenotype. In this example, the expression of G and W alleles results in a gray and white phenotype. Examples of codominance include individuals with type AB blood group in humans or the roan coat color in horses.

Which molecule connects anabolism and catabolism in cells by storing energy from catabolic reactions and providing that energy t
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) connects anabolism and catabolism in cells by storing energy from catabolic reactions and providing that energy to anabolic reaction.

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP), also known as energy molecule, is found in animal and plants cells.

It plays a huge role in anabolic and catabolic reactions.

During anabolic reaction, simple organic molecule join together to form complex molecule by using energy.

For example, carbohydrates, fats, proteins and glycerol.

While in catabolic reaction, large complex molecules disintegrate to form small molecule and in this reaction a large amount of energy is released.

This energy is stored by the body cells for later use.
