Answer:
The correct answer is B.
Explanation:
Given the baltimore's scheme which used for virus classifications, the most closely related option of virus to the described polio virus with a single stranded RNA in the question would be retroviruses that require a DNA intermediate.
Because much like the single-stranded RNA viruses, the retroviruses do not contain any DNA but they do have an enzyme named reverse transcriptase which they can use to replicate their RNA into the host cells DNA and use the end product for their benefits. So they both work in similar ways.
I hope this answer helps.
When insects fly, they expend more energy and consume more oxygen as compared to their state of rest. Insects have a tubular breathing system called tracheae, instead of lungs. The action of flight muscles pumps air through the trachea. This is how they generate extra energy while flying.

Ernest Rutherford
Explanation:
The original term, half-life period, dating to Ernest Rutherford's discovery of the principle in 1907, was shortened to half-life in the early 1950's. Rutherford applied the principle of a radioactive element's half-life to studies of age determination of rocks by measuring the decay period of radium to lead-206.
