An eradicated virus that used to be contagious, disfiguring, and often deadly.
Naturally occurring smallpox was destroyed worldwide by 1980.

Also called variola

Smallpox was an infectious disease caused by one of two virus variants, Variola major and Variola minor.[7] The agent of variola virus (VARV) belongs to the genus Orthopoxvirus.[11] The last naturally occurring case was diagnosed in October 1977, and the World Health Organization (WHO) certified the global eradication of the disease in 1980.[10] The risk of death after contracting the disease was about 30%, with higher rates among babies.[6][12] Often those who survived had extensive scarring of their skin, and some were left blind.[6]

How do genetic modification variations likely to differ from genetic sexual reproduction variations
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

The  genetic modification variations result in the change in the genome of the organism. In this case, the variations result in expression of a trait in different form than usual. These variations results in genetic mutation, which can be inherited from one generation to another.

In sexual reproduction, the genome of the organism is not altered. In this only an exchange between the maternal and the maternal alleles takes place, these changes does not result in mutations.

You’re welcome :)

A strand of DNA contains 10% Guanine, what<br> percent is Adeninc?
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

40% is Adenine.

Explanation:

In DNA, Guanine pairs with Cytosine and Adenine pairs with Thymine.

If a strand of DNA contains 10% Guanine, that means that it also contains 10% Cytosine.

10% G + 10% C = 20%

100% - 20% = 80% (Adenine and Thymine)

80% ÷ 2 = 40%

The strand of DNA contains 10% Guanine, 10% Cytosine, 40% Adenine, and 40% Thymine.
