Answer: Self-replicating RNA
RNA can do catalytic functions like enzymes. It carries genetic information and replicate itself. It also carries information about vesicles which carries it. RNA is less stable than DNA which confirms that genetic material is evolved from a less stable to highly stable form.
Answer:
Weathering describes the breaking down or dissolving of rocks and minerals on the surface of the Earth. Water, ice, acids, salts, plants, animals, and changes in temperature are all agents of weathering.
The choices are:
<span>A. Matrix protein
B. Hemagglutinin
C. An ion channel
D. Neuraminidase
</span>
The right answer is B. Hemaglutinin
Explanation:
Haemagglutinins are triangular rods. They allow the attachment of Influenzaviruses on the target cells of the respiratory tree. In the presence of red blood cells, a haemagglutination (liquid medium) is obtained.
<u>About the other components of Influenza virus:</u>Neuraminidase is a mushroom-shaped spike composed of a tetramer consisting of 4 subunits of a single glycoprotein. At 37 ° C, the neuraminidase destroys the bonds (virus - cells) and thus allows the release of neoformed virions in the external environment: it is elution.
The membrane protein M and the protein subunits of the nucleocapsid are antigenic and are the basis of the classification of Influenzavirus types A, B and C. They induce the synthesis of non-protective antibodies fixing the complement.
