<span>Preservation of advantageous genetic mutations, I think.</span>
Answer:
Option C
Explanation:
In elephant seals, the male arrive the beach first and start establishing its territory. Once their territory is established female elephant seals starts arriving at the beach and prefer mating with the male who can defend their territory or females in his territory from other males. All females in the territory of specific male mate with the male give birth to their pups and after staying for few months move back into the water.
hence, option C is correct
Answer:
<h3>Viruses can only replicate themselves by infecting a host cell and therefore cannot reproduce on their own.</h3>
<h3>At the most basic level, viruses consist of genetic material contained within a protective protein coat called a capsid; the existence of both genetic material and protein distinguishes them from other virus-like particles such as prions and viroids.</h3>
<h3>They infect a wide variety of organisms: both eukaryotes (animals, fungi and plants) and prokaryotes (bacteria).</h3>
<h3>A virus that infects bacteria is known as a bacteriophage, often shortened to phage.</h3>
<h3>The study of viruses is known as virology, and those who study viruses are known as virologists.</h3><h3 /><h3>It has been argued extensively whether viruses are living organisms.</h3>
<h3>Most virologists consider them non-living, as they do not meet all the criteria of the generally accepted definition of life.</h3>
<h3>They are similar to obligate intracellular parasites as they lack the means for self-reproduction outside a host cell, but unlike parasites, viruses are generally not considered to be true living organisms.</h3>
<h3>A primary reason is that viruses do not possess a cell membrane or metabolise on their own - characteristics of all living organisms.</h3>
<h3>Examples of common human diseases caused by viruses include the common cold, the flu, chickenpox and cold sores.</h3>
Answer:
The correct answer is "Interference with viral replication".
Explanation:
The complement system is an essential part of the immune system that involves the activation of a series of proteins that act as a cascade and result in the development of inflammatory responses that help to fight infections. There are multiple effects of complement activation, however interference with viral replication is not one of them. The molecules that are able to interfere with viral replication are called interferons, and they synthesis and activation are not related with complement activation.
Once the alcohol goes into our system, an ounce of it is process for a period of one hour.
The first stop happens in the stomach where absorption through the gastric lining and bloodstream occurs. Stronger drinks are absorbed more quickly. The second stop happens in the brain where its function decreases/ is increasingly impaired as the BAC or blood alcohol content grows. The third stop will be in the heart. However, it should be noted that it does not receive any physical alcohol, but its effects on the heart are strong. Alcohol is a vasodilator which means it causes blood vessels to dilate. This indicates more blood flow through the body-- but lowers the overall blood pressure. The fourth stop will be in the kidneys where blood is filtered. The fifth stop will be in the bladder where it will excreted from the body. Lastly, the liver is where the rest of alcohol left in your system is broken down. This process is known as metabolizing. The chemical that remains after metabolization is acetaldehyde and the body gets rid it by further metabolizing it into carbon dioxide and water.
Therefore, an ounce of alcohol is processed in our body for 60 minutes or one hour.
