The infect the host and take over host replication machinery and replicates itself. Although it is not able to replicate outside the living body.

PLEASE ANSWER IN FIVE MINUTES!! WHO EVER ANSWERS WILL GET BRAINLIEST!
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

It looks to me that those are plant genes. And plant genes use the atmosphere and the hydrosphere to take in carbon dioxide. CO2 is in the atmosphere and once consumed, sugar ( Glucose ) is created. H2O is part of the hydrosphere and when water is consumed, Oxygen is the output. All of the spheres of the earth ( biosphere, hydrosphere, geosphere, and atmosphere ) are interconnected to create the things we know and see.

In fermentation, which step of cellular respiration is being accomplished?
Annette [7]
The process that occurs in a cell when there is not enough oxygen is called fermentation. Fermentation occurs through the process of Anaerobic Respiration, where instead of using oxygen, organic and inorganic molecules are used as final electron acceptors. The by-product of this process is usually alcohol, ethanol, or acetic acids.
<span>
Fermentation is commonly used in lactic acid (in muscles) and alcohol (beers, whiskey) fermentation where the by-product is ethanol. Yeasts are a common organism that uses this process, where it convert sugars into alcohols or acetic acids.</span>
