Answer:
Cyanobacteria otherwise known as "blue-green algae"
Explanation:
Active transport is the energy-requiring process of pumping molecules and ions across membranes against a concentration gradient.
Endocytosis is the process of capturing a substance or particle from outside the cell by engulfing it with the cell membrane, and bringing it into the cell
Answer:
The bacterial DNA gets degraded at step 3 of the viral lytic cycle.
Explanation:
Viruses are organisms that are incapable of replicating on their own, hence, they require a living host which they infect and use its replicational ability to reproduce theirselves. The infection cycle of this virus is regarded as its replication cycle. Viruses employ either the LYTIC or LYSOGENIC cycle for infection.
The lytic cycle involves killing of their host cell at the end of the cycle. Generally, the cycle starts with the attachment of my the virus to the cell membrane of its host using specific receptor sites (step 1). It then penetrates the host cell as seen in step 2.
After penetration, the virus then secretes certain degrading enzymes called ENDONUCLEASES that degrades the bacterial DNA. After which the virus uses the replicational and gene expressing ability of the host to transcibe its genetic material and replicate itself. This process called SYNTHESIS occurs in step 3.
Hence, the yellow ring in the image that represents bacterial DNA disappears in step 3 (synthesis stage) because it gets degraded by viral digesting enzymes.
The feature that is created by deposition of the loosely packed and mineral-rich soil is Loess.
Loess is a loosely packed soil deposition due to blown wind of sediment rocks. The geography of loess is in between soil and clay. It is finer in texture than soil but has the coarse structure than the clay. This loess contains certain clay portions in order to hold the soil particles properly.
It can be mostly seen in Great Plains of North America, northern china, and other places around the world.
