Plants:
1. Most plants respond to the environment by growing towards the light.
2. Plants respond to daily and seasonal cycles and diseases.
Flatworms:
1. Flatworms respond to changes in light.
2. Flatworms adapt to marine life by using diffusion to breathe and to distribute nutrients to other parts of the body.
Humans:
1. The nervous system allows an organism to respond quickly to changes in the internal or external environment.
2. Some humans modify the environment (positively or negatively), such as cutting forests, building dams, and expanding urban areas, etc.
Answer:
Answer No 1:
The earliest evidence for the occurrence of viruses was the discovery of an infectious agent in the sap of a tobacco plant. Experiments were set with different filters from which bacteria could pass but viruses being even smaller than bacteria could not pass.
Viruses were difficult to study because they are very small and couldn't be seen even under a microscope.
Answer No 2:
Wendell Stanley made his studies on the tobacco mosaic virus (TMV). Wendell Stanley developed techniques and crystallized this virus. At that time, it was known that even a very simple cell does not undergo crytallization. Hence, Wendell Stanley got to known that this structure is some infectious agent which has the ability of crystallization.
Answer No 3:
The four forms of viral genomes are:
- double-stranded DNA
- single-stranded DNA
- double-stranded RNA
- single-stranded RNA.
Answer No 4:
The capsid can be described as proteins which make up a shell to enclose the genome of a virus. Capsomeres can be described as the protein sub-units from which a capsid is made. The shapes of a capsid can be characterized into
- rod-shaped: helical viruses, or inside spherical viruses
.
- icosohedral: icosohedral viruses or the heads of bacteriophages.
Answer No 5:
The components of a viral envelope involve phospholipids and membrane proteins and proteins and glycoproteins. The phospholipids and membrane proteins are derived from the host cell. The proteins and glycoproteins are of the viral origin.
