Match the description on the right with the force on the left.
Marat540 [252]

Magnetic force - B.

Electrical force - A.

Gravitational force - D.

Contact force - C.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

When a charge moves about its path, it produces a magnetic force around it. This magnetic field is perpendicular to the axis of movement of the charge and is directly proportional to the amount of charge, speed of the charge, and inversely proportional to distance between the charge and the point of measurement. Michael Faraday discovered this phenomenon.

Electrical force of attraction or repulsion is seen between the two charged bodies, or one charged body and one uncharged body which can induce charge to the uncharged body. The attraction or repulsion between the charged bodies are seen if the bodies are close enough, and this is called electrical force.

The gravitational force is also a non contact force that is seen between two bodies which is always attractive in nature and is seen between any two bodies.

A contact force like friction is a type of force that takes place only when two bodies are in contact with each other.

Which type of macromolecule makes up the capsid of a virus
Elenna [48]

Protein

Proteins are the most versatile macromolecules in living systems and they play important roles in essentially all biological processes. Protein makes up the capsid of a virus. The infective extracellular form of a virus known as a virion contains at least one unique protein synthesized by specific genes in the nucleic acid of that virus. In almost all viruses, at least one of these proteins forms a shell (called a capsid) around the nucleic acid. Certain viruses also have other proteins internal to the capsid. Some of these proteins act as enzymes during the synthesis of viral nucleic acids.
