<span>Bacterial genome is prone to mutational changes due to its simple nature and less efficient DNA repair mechanisms compared to humans, thus it has more chances of obtaining new genetic traits.</span>
Alexandria, I believe. I hope this is helpful and brainliest would be nice ;)
Answer:
Th correct answer is A. Capsid
Explanation:
T-2 phage is a bacteriophage which is virulent to E.coli which means T2 phage infects E.coli. The genetic material of T2 phage is linear DNA which is double-stranded. The genetic material of T2 phage is enclosed in a protein coat which is called capsid.
This capsid protects the genetic material of bacteriophage by any enzymatic digestion, helps the virus to attach the host cell and helps the virion to penetrate the cell membrane of the host cell and inject its genetic material in the host cell. Therefore capsid is the correct answer.
I believe the answer is C, hope this helps!
