Answer:
The correct answer is: D. Ebola.
Explanation:
- Ebola Virus is a single-stranded RNA (ribonucleic acid) virus.
- The natural host of the virus is Fruit bat but it can also infect humans.
- The transmission of the virus into humans is mediated from infected bats through body fluids.
- The major disease caused by the virus is is Hemorrhagic fever. In this disease, the platelet (responsible for clotting of blood) count in the blood drops far below normal. As a result, bleeding can get initiated both in the body interior or exterior. This disease can cause multiple organ failure and death.
- Recently, in the year 2018, the Central African country, Democratic Republic of Congo experienced a severely fatal endemic due to the Ebola virus that killed many people within a short period of time.
Answer: True
Explanation:
<u>A cell membrane consists of a lipid bilayer made of polar phosphate head and a nonpolar lipid tail.</u> It is semipermeable and regulates the transport of materials through it. For this,<u> it is selectively permeable</u> and since it is made of lipids, hydrophobic and small polar molecules can diffuse easily through it by simple diffusion and down their concentration gradient. However, polar molecules, large molecules (such as glucose) and ions are not able to pass through it because they are repelled.
To accomplish the transport of these molecules that can not diffuse, proteins embebbed in the membrane function as carriers that enable the transport of polar molecules, large molecules and ions by passive (through facilitated diffusion, down its concentration gradient) or active transport (movement against its concentration gradient).
