Answer:
a. the virus must be able to cross-link red blood cells directly.
Explanation:
Viral hemagglutination assay is a method which is used for the quantification of the relative concentration of the viruses.
The principle on which the hemagglutination assay works is as follows:
- There are sialic acid receptors present on the surface of the red blood cells which will bind to the haemagglutinin glycoprotein present on the surface of the viral particle.
- Due to the binding of the sialic acid receptors with haemagglutinin particle there will be cross-linking of the red blood cells by the viral particles and a lattice formation will take place.
- The lattice will remain suspended in the solution however if the concentration of the virus particles will be less, the lattice will settle down in the well.
Thus, this method allows knowing the relative concentration of the virus.
<em>Due to its basic principle of cross-linking this method works well for only a few viruses such as influenza virus. </em>
It's empty or fairly large, making the sounds from your hands bounce of the walls and therefore having it echo
Answer:
first one is a point mutation
second is a frame shift by addition
Explanation:
First one : only one letter changes
second one : a letter was added shifting other bases.
Water
Soil
The sun
Atmospheric Gases
Temperature.
These are just a few of many, but all abiotic factors are not living. Hence A-Biotic
Biotic means living, so when you put the ''a'' prefix it means the opposite of living.
