Even though RSV infection in infants is common, a vaccine does not currently exist. Imagine you are designing a recombinant vacc
Citrus2011 [14]

Explanation:

RSV is caused by a group of paramyxoviruses and belong to the group of pneumoviruses. It has two prevalent strains RSV-A and RSV-B.

To test RSV antigen in the sample we can use immunofluorescence test (IFT). IFT is a method used to identify pathogen specific antigen or antibody in sample collected from patient using fluorescence. A fluorochrome protein molecule is used to do this. Depending upon the material used and dye fluorochrome releases energy which results in fluorescence.

In this method sample collected from patient is applied on the plate and antibodies specific to the antigen are added into the plates with antigen. The antibodies used are labeled with fluorochrome to give fluorescence.

2. As viruses genetic material is prone to errors it is difficult to create a vaccine against viruses. RSV has RNA as genome and it has highly conserved lipoprotein which functions as antigen. This lipoprotein sequence is highly conserved in all the strains of the viruses. I would prefer to use this lipoprotein present in the membrane of virus for vaccine research

The most plausible hypothesis to explain why species richness is higher in tropical than in temperate regions is that
qwelly [4]
The most plausible hypothesis is: Tropical regions generally have more available water and higher levels of solar radiation. They also have very high rates of immigration and very low rates of extinction.

explanation:
Water is essential for an abundance of life, and sunlight is the means by which the whole food chain receives energy. Plants convert the sunlight into food, herbivores eat them, and other animals eat herbivores.

Hope this helps, and muchas luck on your biology.

In ocean waves, water particles move ________ and energy moves ________. A) vertically; in circles B) in circles; horizontally C
son4ous [18]
In ocean waves, water particles move in circles and energy moves horizontally. Ocean waves are orbital progressive waves. The water molecules that make up the wave move in circles, or orbits, as the wave progresses. The ocean orbital waves get their start when wind blows on the open ocean, A gentle wind doesn't have much of an effect, but the stronger wind becomes the more it pushes against the water. It transfers energy to the water as it makes peaks and whitecaps in the water's surface.
