Answer:
The most appropriate answer would be A. The particle is a virus because it does not use energy and cannot reproduce by itself.
Virus is defined as a small infectious agent that carry its own genetic material (DNA or RNA) but divides only in the living cells of other organisms (bacteria, human, animals, plants etc).
They are acellular in nature and thus are not able to reproduce on their own. They use the metabolism and machinery of the host cell in order to produce and assemble multiple copies of themselves in a cell.
They attach to the specific binding site of their target cells and inject their genetic material into the cell. The host cell's machinery is then used to replicate, transcribe and translate viral genetic material.
The viral genome produced are assembled in the protein cascade. They are then released by causing bursting of the infected cell.
Answer:
D, eukaryote organelles contain dna similiar to bacterial dna
Explanation:
A person who sprints for 45 seconds will obtain most of his or her energy from muscle glycogen.
<h3>Energy metabolism during sprints</h3>
During sprinting or highly intense exercise activities, blood glucose is rapidly consumed. Rapid consumption of blood glucose may breach the blood glucose set point.
In order to maintain blood glucose homeostasis, glucose stored as glycogen in the muscles is converted back to glucose. The glucose is then utilized to produce ATP for the sprint or exercise.
Thus, a person who sprints for 45 seconds will have to obtain most of their energy from the glycogen stored in the muscles.

A) muscle triglycerides.
B) plasma free fatty acids.
C) blood glucose.
D) muscle glycogen.
Having broken down walls of Glomerulus would cause blood to appear in urine because instead of only filtrate passing into the capsule, the blood would also flow into the capsule and be released with the urine.
Answer and Explanation:
The Huntington disease is caused by a mutation in the gene that codifies for the Huntingtin protein (Htt). The mutation produces an altered form of the protein leading to the neuron´s death in certain areas of the brain.
The Huntington disease characterizes for being,
- Hereditary, passing from generation to generation. To express the disease, a person must have been born with an altered gene.
- Autosomal, affecting men and women equally, because the mutated gene is located on an autosomal chromosome.
- Dominant, which means that by getting only one copy of the altered gene coming from any of the parents, the receiving person will express the disease. The mutation in the gene dominates over the normal gene copy.
- Expressed by heterozygosis. Most people affected by the disease are heterozygous, with a normal copy and a mutated copy.
There are just a few cases all around the world (3% approximately) in which the disease is expressed with no family history. The progenitors are not affected by the mutation. These cases are very rare and are called <u>"de-novo" mutations.</u> A new mutation is spontaneously produced and it is not inherited from any of the parentals. It consists of an increase in the number of CAG repetitions. In a normal person, the number of CAG repetitions is less than 35. When there are 40 or more repetitions it occurs the disease. But when there are between 35 and 39 repetitions, the penetrance of the disease is incomplete. This is a "gray zone". Those alleles that fall in the gray zone are unstable and might produce the HD. Individuals with these unstable alleles have a tendency to increase the number of repetitions from generation to generation until the number reaches 40 repetitions and the person expresses the disease. This <u>usually occurs in the paternal germinal line</u>, as it is particularly unstable in sperm and probably meiosis greatly affects their instability, causing an increase in the number of CAG repeats.
