Why are virsuses considered to be non living

Biology
1 answer:
iVinArrow [24]3 years ago
7 0

Viruses, for one, can't reproduce on their own. They also don't need nutrients or oxygen. They also have RNA instead of DNA. All of these factors make viruses non-living things, existing only to hijack cells and force them to make copies of the virus and kill the host.

Viruses are kind of horrible.

Anyway, have a great night/day!

The growth of white matter in early childhood seems to serve the purpose of improving __________.
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

Structural organization of brain and structural correlation within complex neural systems along with easy Signal (electrical or neural) transmission

Explanation:

White matter is a kind of fatty substance known as myelin which surrounds the nerve fibres known as axons. This myelin is commonly found in almost all long nerve fibers and serve the purpose of providing insulation to other body parts from the nerves carrying electrical signals. In this way, a message passes quickly from one place to other.  It also organizes the brain  structurally and architecturally and also establishes structural correlation within complex neural systems.

After a certain age , the white matter starts wearing and a person faces co-ordinaton issues.

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

The two blue budgies are most likely to be yyBb each

Explanation:

there are 3 different scenarios possible for crossing blue budgies:

1) yyBB crossed with yyBB

this is not possible because it does not allow for the genotype yybb (white budgies)

2) yyBB crossed with yyBb

again, this cross will not yield the genotype yybb required for white budgies as given in the problem statement

3) yyBb crossed with yyBb

which leaves us with this option being most likely the genotype of the parent budgies who will have white budgies as offspring

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!
