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:
The observable traits expressed by an organism are referred to
EXPLANATION:
An organism's underlying genetic makeup, consisting of both physically visible and non-expressed alleles, is called its genotype. Mendel's hybridization experiments demonstrate the difference between phenotype and genotype.
The phosphorus cycle does not include an atmospheric component because phosphorus does not cycle through the atmosphere. In comparison, important processes of the carbon and nitrogen cycle occur in the atmosphere.
Because there always needs to be something that starts it off. Eg: If there was no grass, there would be no animals.
