Answer:

When a pig is simultaneously infected with an avian influenza strain and a human influenza strain, the two sets of genes present in the pig result in antigenic shift (option b).

Explanation:

Antigenic shift occurs when two different strains of a virus meet in an organism and combine to produce a new type of virus containing a mixture of the surface antigens of the strains that have combined.

Once two virus of different strains coexist in an organism they lose their viral capsid, exposing the genetic information that will be transcribed in the host cell into a different virus, containing the combination of the surface antigens of the viruses that were found in the mentioned organism.

    <em>The other options are not correct because mainly </em><em><u>genetic drift</u></em><em> refers to changes in the antigens of a virus due to repeated random mutations in the viral genome.</em>

Give a brief explanation on what a woman's period is.
slava [35]

Toward the end of puberty, girls start to release eggs every month which is called the mensural cycle.

Around 1 or two times in a month, during ovulation which is the release of eggs, an ovary takes a tiny eggs and puts/sends it into one of the fallopian tubes where the fertilization occurs.

The egg tends to dry up fairly quickly which usually happens in around 14 days unless of course it's fertilized by sperm.

When the egg leaves the body, this specific process is menstruation (also known as her "period") and is completely normal for girls to have.

Blood and tissue from the uterus join together for the mensural flow which can be a different number of days depending on who you are, but it usually last 3-6 days.
