In 1898 Friedrich Loeffler and Paul Frosch found evidence that the cause of the highly contagious hoof-and-mouth disease in live

stock was a microscopic infectious particle. It was discovered that this particle cannot reproduce on its own. Which of these is most likely responsible for causing hoof-and-mouth disease in livestock?

Answer:

a virus, because it requires a host cell to reproduce

Explanation:

  • a bacterium, because it is contagious
  • a fungus, because it infects livestock
  • a protist, because it is microscopic
  • a virus, because it requires a host cell to reproduce

The correct answer would be <u>a virus because a virus is the only microbe that cannot reproduce on its own without a host</u>. A virus utilizes the genetic mechanism of its host to reproduce either lytically or lysogenically.

<u>In lytic cycle</u>, the virus utilizes the genome system of the host to produce more viruses that eventually leave or lyses the host to become independent viral particles, killing the host in the process.

<u>In lysogenic cycle</u>, the virus inserts its genome into that of the host and uses the host's replication machinery to replicate its genome. The virus then waits for the defense mechanism of the host to become weakened before multiplying and lysing the host.

sertanlavr [38]

Answer-Sea flows act a lot of like a transport line, moving warm water and precipitation from the equator toward the posts and cold water from the shafts back to the tropics. In this manner, sea flows manage worldwide atmosphere, assisting with balancing the lopsided dissemination of sun powered radiation arriving at Earth's surface.

The synthesis of the enzyme lipase would be classified as anabolic because A) the resulting enzyme can catalyze the breakdown of
puteri [66]

Answer:

B) energy is captured in the bonds linking amino acids that compose lipase.

Explanation:

Anabolic reactions are chemically defined as synthesis reactions in opposition to Catabolic reactions, in which a degradation of chemical compounds occurs. Thus, in anabolic transformations simpler reagents are used to produce more complex substances. In the particular case of the synthesis of a lipase, a number of amino acids are chemically bonded to form a polymerized structure, clearly chemically more complex, known as polypeptide.

An increase in chemical complexity always requires an investment of energy, considering that building a larger molecule implies bonding more reagents or precursor into the final product. Thus, the increase in the energy content of the product (in this case the lipase) when comparing to each precursor (individuals amino acids) will be reflected in the linking (covalent) bonds between amino acids. Of course, there is always a certain amount of energy that is lost as heat during any chemical transformation (not all the energy invested in the synthesis will be captured in the product).

The overall of all anabolic reaction which take place inside the cell is called anabolism, while the whole set degradation chemical reaction occurring within the cell is known as catabolism. Being said that, it is clear that anabolism and catabolism, when being considered jointly, conform the metabolism as a whole and coordinated cellular process.
