coronavirus can be deadly for some people. Older adults and people with existing health conditions are more at risk of serious complications, which can be life threatening.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), about 80% of people who develop the disease have mild to moderate symptoms and fully recover without needing treatment in a hospital.

Roughly 1 in 5 people experience serious illness.

Older people may develop more severe symptoms, as may people with ongoing health conditions, such as:

high blood pressure

cardiovascular disease

diabetes

chronic respiratory disease

cancer

Some severe coronavirus symptoms include difficulty breathing and a feeling of pressure in the chest.

coronavirus can also cause serious and sometimes fatal complications, including:

pneumonia

arrhythmia, which is an irregular heartbeat

damage to organs

multiple organ failure

sepsis

shock

respiratory distress syndrome

heart failure

Is there a vaccine?

To date, there are no specific vaccines or medicines for coronavirus. Treatments are under investigation, and will be tested through clinical trials

If you have mild symptoms and are otherwise healthy, self-isolate and contact your medical provider or a Coronavirus information line for advice.

Seek medical care if you have a fever, a cough, and difficulty breathing. Call in advance.

If you feel sick you should rest, drink plenty of fluid, and eat nutritious food. Stay in a separate room from other family members, and use a dedicated bathroom if possible. Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces.

Everyone should keep a healthy lifestyle at home. Maintain a healthy diet, sleep, stay active, and make social contact with loved ones through the phone or internet. Children need extra love and attention from adults during difficult times. Keep to regular routines and schedules as much as possible.

It is normal to feel sad, stressed, or confused during a crisis. Talking to people you trust, such as friends and family, can help. If you feel overwhelmed, talk to a health worker or counsellor.

The expression of a gene to form a polypeptide occurs in two major steps. What are these two steps in their correct chronologica
Katen [24]

two steps of expression of a gene in their correct chronological order are Transcription then translation.(option a)

The process by which information from a gene is used in the synthesis of a functional gene product that enables it to produce protein or non-coding RNA end products and ultimately affect a phenotype as the final effect is known as gene expression.

It comprises two significant stages: translation and transcription, Gene expression is made up of transcription and translation working together to form a polypeptide.

  • The production of RNA from DNA is known as transcription. The enzyme RNA polymerase acts as the catalytic agent.
  • The process by which a messenger RNA's genetic code is decoded to produce a particular polypeptide chain is known as translation. A particular amino acid is specified in each genetic code.
