Virulence factors of virus aids in its ability to infect cells.
Explanation:
Virulence factors help pathogenic microbes to infect host cells by virulence mechanisms – invade host, cause and spread disease, evade the defense or immune mechanism of the host. These factors makes the virus to grow, replicate, and modify the host cells due to its toxicity.
Viruses binds to the receptor protein of the host cell.
Different types of virulent factors are: invasion factors, adhesive or adherent factors, capsules, endo and exotoxins, etc.
The virulence factors decides the severity and rate of spread of an infection
According to this problem, this is an example of complete dominance, so the dominant allele would be the allele that codes for physical trait for roundness of the seed.
So the cross would be like this:
W = allele for round seed
w = allele for wrinkled seed
P1 gen = ww • WW
F1 gen = Ww
Since all of the offspring are heterozygous the result is that the dominant allele suppressed the recessive allele for wrinkled seed.
<span>Not all plants use the C4 or CAM
pathways to avoid photorespiration because they require a lot of extra energy
to perform their function. In photosynthesis, minimizing water loss is essential;
C4 plants relocate the carbon dioxide to lessen photorespiration while CAM
plants indicates when to extract carbon dioxide. Their function is also related
to plants survival where C4 plants is usually a summer plant while CAM plants
is suited to thrive in desserts. Therefore, only plants that need special
requirement to survival use these pathways.</span>
