A general lack of nutrition and wasting occurring in the course of a chronic disease is known as CACHEXIA.
Patients suffering from chronic diseases often have low appetite which may it difficult for them to eat the quantity of food that their body systems need, the body has to make up for this lack by using the storage of fat they already have in their bodies.

PLZ HELP!!!! I'LL GIVE BRAILLIEST!!!<br><br><br> How does a tobacco mosaic virus reproduce???
Dominik [7]

Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) is a simple rod-shaped helical virus that contains single stranded RNA situated at its middle and is surrounded by a protein coat called capsid. After tobacco mosaic virus enters its infected host cells through mechanical inoculation, it removes its capsid to release its single stranded viral nucleic acid which is then transported into the nucleolus. The single stranded viral RNA actuates the production of specific enzymes (RNA polymerases) and it also produces another RNA strand (replicative RNA). The new viral-RNAs are transported from the nucleus into the cytoplasm and functions as messenger-RNAs (mRNAs). Each mRNA, ribosomes, and t-RNA, of the infected host cell all controls the production of protein subunits (capsomeres). After the production of the preferred capsomeres, the new viral-RNAs arrange the capsomeres around it which lead to the production of a complete virus particle (virion). The viruses then migrate from one cell to another. Hence, creating organized infection.
