The 7 (sometimes 8) characteristics of life are:
1. living things are composed of cells
2. living things have different levels of organization
3. living things metabolize (i.e. use energy)
4. living things respond to their environment
5. living things grow
6. living things reproduce
7. living things adapt to their environment
(some sources include) 8. living things have genetic material
Viruses do not metabolize, they do not grow, they do not adapt to their environment, and they cannot reproduce independently; viruses require host cells to reproduce and perform the other functions that give them the appearance of aliveness.
Answer:
Primers should be:
3 'ACGTATGTCGCTTAGT 5'
5 'ACGTTCCAGTCAATGA 3'
Explanation:
DNA replication occurs with the need for the presence of primers that are a small sequence of nitrogenous bases that will allow the initiation of replication.
Primers are extremely important in PCR and are represented as small pieces of single-stranded DNA that specify the region of DNA that should be replicated during PCR. These primers attach to the single strand of DNA by pairing the nitrogenous bases allowing the DNA polymerase to recognize where replication begins.
Regarding the question above, the primers should be:
3 'ACGTATGTCGCTTAGT 5'
5 'ACGTTCCAGTCAATGA 3'

Volume is the space that an object occupies. Mass is the amount of matter in a given object.
