Which component is present in some viruses but absent in others?
kifflom [539]

Answer:

The correct answer would be the virus envelope.

Viral envelope is a protective covering present around the capsid proteins in some viruses.

It is usually derived from the cell membrane of the host and thus it is composed of lipid and viral proteins.

It provides stability to the viral particle, helps in protecting the viral genome, and aids in the fusion of the virus with the membrane of the host.

Examples of viruses in which envelope is present: herpesviruses, poxviruses, flavivirus, hepatitis D et cetera.

Examples of viruses in which envelope is absent: adenoviridae , papillomaviridae , picornaviridae , caliciviridae et cetera.

Which is part of the theory of evolution by natural selection?
Katen [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is: A. Only the best-adapted animals in a population survive.

Explanation:

  • Natural Selection is the process by which the individuals of a species which has the potential to sustain and survive in adverse or changing environment gets a survival advantage over those individuals which are unable to adapt themselves to altered environmental conditions.
  • As the less potent individuals die in altered environmental conditions the  adaptable individuals escapes competition with them for natural resources.
  • Evolution causes species to alter their characteristics depending upon the demand of the conditions. These changes can vary, can be less or drastic.
  • Animals pass all the newly adapted traits to the successive generations either as genetic traits or as acquired traits, as this is necessary for the offspring to survive in the altered environment.
  • Natural selection is best defined as "the survival of the fittest".
