Biology

Semmy [17]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The amount and arrangement of the proteins and nucleic acid of viruses determine their size and shape. The protein and nucleic acid constituents have properties unique for each class of virus; when assembled, they determine the size and shape of the virus for that specific class. The capsid ensures the virus gets delivered into the host, thereby allowing the virus to continue on. This shows the capsid of the Adenovirus. This capsid is called an icosahedral shape. This is one of the more complex types of capsid.

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is- Resistance

Explanation:

The ability of any organism in a population to tolerate a chemical like insecticide, pesticide or antibiotic which is designed to kill it or slow its reproduction is called resistance.

For example, the antibiotic resistance is seen in some bacteria like MRSA(Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus). They gain this resistance because they have some variant traits in their genome which provide them resistance against these chemicals.  

These individual are selected through natural selection when the environmental condition changes and become adverse. So the correct answer is resistance.

Parents 1. According to Mendel's law of segregation, what is the probablity that a gamete (egg or sperm) from an Rr parent carri
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

1/2

Explanation:

Mendel's law of segregation states that pair of alleles representing a gene segregate during gamete formation and randomly unite during fertilization.

<em>Hence, a gene represented by Rr alleles will segregate into R and r gametes. Out of the two gametes, one will carry R allele while the other one will carry r allele. The probability that a gamete will carry an r allele therefore is 1/2.</em>
