Answer: Infection occurs when the host is exposed to pathogens. virus uses the cell's metabolism, and replicates itself while destroying the cell or changing the cell's genetic makeup.
Explanation:
- A virus is a miniscule pocket of protein that contains genetic material.
- Viruses pose a considerable challenge to the body’s immune system because they hide inside cells.
- This makes it difficult for antibodies to reach them. Some special immune system cells, called T-lymphocytes, can recognise and kill cells containing viruses, since the surface of infected cells is changed when the virus begins to multiply.
- Many viruses, when released from infected cells, will be effectively knocked out by antibodies that have been produced in response to infection or previous immunisation.
- Antibiotics are useless against viral infections. So antiviral drugs work differently to antibiotics, by interfering with the viral enzymes instead.
Hence virus are the pathogen that use the cell's metabolism. And replicate itself while destroying the cell or changing the cell's genetic makeup. viruses are so simple that they use their host cells to perform their activities for them

Answer:
Three main pieces of evidence for the Big Bang theory are the red-shift of light, cosmic background radiation and types of elements.
The answer is d. Food chain
All annelids and arthropods have a body plan. Unlike annelids, arthropods also have a coelom, and a segmented body. The circulatory system of annelids is closed, while the circulatory system of arthropods is opened.
Arthropods are invertebrate organism that possess a stiff exoskeleton, a segmented body, and paired jointed appendages. Arthropods include insects, crustaceans, myriapods, and arachnids. Arthropods possess an open circulatory system; a system without blood vessels. The circulatory system of arthropods is made up of a tube (the heart), and an open hemocoel (in which the blood moves).
Annelids are invertebrate animals that have a body cavity, movable bristles, and a segmented body. Annelids include earthworms, and leeches. The circulatory system of annelids is closed; blood circulates through a closed system of blood vessels.
