Which of the following statements concerning viruses is true?

Biology
1 answer:
zysi [14]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The second statement is correct: "The "host range" for a virus is determined by the presence or absence of particular components on the surface of a host cell that are required for the virus to attach."

Explanation:

The virus attaching itself to the host cell is the first step for it to successfully infect the host. Viruses are smaller in size than bacteria, so the first statement is incorrect. The third statement is incorrect because viruses do not have the necessary machinery to carry out protein synthesis or to generate ATP, this precisely why they seek out a host to begin with. The fourth statement is false because the virus will either have DNA or RNA, but both at the same time.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!

Write a sentence that compares the reactants and products of photosynthesis with the reactants and products of respiration.
Anna11 [10]

Answer/Explanation:

Using solar energy, photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose and oxygen, whereas respiration uses glucose and oxygen to produce energy, releasing carbon dioxide and water.

Therefore, photosynthesis and respiration act as a cycle, using reverse reactants and products.

Photosynthesis builds food for the cell to use, respiration uses this food to power cellular processes.

Answer: Adrenaline, also known as epinephrine, is a hormone and medication. Adrenaline is normally produced by both the adrenal glands and a small number of neurons in the medulla oblongata, where it acts as a neurotransmitter involved in regulating visceral functions (e.g., respiration).It plays an important role in the fight-or-flight response by increasing blood flow to muscles, output of the heart, pupil dilation response and blood sugar level. It does this by binding to alpha and beta receptors.[
