The right option is; The ability to reproduce  

A virus is a non-cellular submicroscopic infectious organism that consists of a core of DNA or RNA surrounded by a protein coat. Viruses are not considered as true living things because they do not have the ability to reproduce and they are not made of cells. Viruses can only reproduce within a living cell and they often causes disease in the host organism.

Your BFF is a red-headed, left-handed, blue-eyed girl. She finds out that you are taking Human Genetics and wants you to explain
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Red hair, left handed, and blue eyes are recessive traits.

Any trait has its two allele, dominant and recessive. Dominant trait allele if present with the recessive allele, then the phenotype will be of dominant allele.

Suppose A = dominant allele for brown color hair, a = recessive allele for red color hair.

As mentioned above red color hair is recessive in nature. for the recessive traits to show, the alleles should be recessive only.

Aa (brown hair) (parent 1) is crossed with Aa (parent 2) (brown hair). They both have gametes A and a.

Their children will have genotype AA, aa, and Aa. AA = brown color, aa = red color hair, and Aa= brown color hair.

Same case goes with the left hand and blue eyes traits.

So, the girl parents must be having recessive alleles for all the traits, and she must have inherited all the recessive allele only.

Why can the complex sugar cellulose store more energy that the sugar glucose
adelina 88 [10]

Because they contain less "built-in" water.

Explanation:

When two glucose molecules 'decide' to bond, they lose a molecule of water:

<span>2<span>C6</span><span>H12</span><span>O6</span>→<span>C12</span><span>H22</span><span>O11</span>+<span>H2</span>O</span>

And this happens at every connection between glucose molecules, so in a long chain a lot of water is lost. The water does not contribute anything to the energy content of the compound.
