Answer:
A
Explanation:
Usually a virus is mainly made up of genetic material (DNA or RNA) inside a capsid/envelope. It has no organelles like a ‘true’ cell. Because it cannot reproduce on its own, scientists struggle to categorize it as a living thing since reproduction is a property of living things. The virus reproduces by hijacking the cellular mechanisms of the host cells to replicate itself. It does so by integrating itself in the genome of the host so that its DNA is also replicated, along with that of the host, by the host cell DNA polymerases and its proteins produced by the ribosomes of the host.
Answer:
The correct order would be:
A vaccine introduces a weakened flu virus into the body.
↓
The immune system identifies antigens on the weakened flu virus.
↓
Antibodies are produced, which bind to the weakened flu virus and signal immune cells to destroy it.
↓
The actual flu virus enters the body, and lymphocytes recognize the antigens.
↓
Antibodies are quickly produced and allow the body to fight off the infection.
Vaccination or immunization is the process which helps in developing the immunity (adaptive) against a particular pathogen or microorganism.
It includes the administration of antigen, weakened or heat-killed microorganism (such as flu virus) into the patients body. Body's immune system produces naive B and T cells to eliminate the antigen.
This encounter enables the immune system to produce memory B and T cells against that particular pathogen.
In future, whenever the same antigen enters the body, the immune system gets activated quickly due to the presence of memory cells. It enables the body to produce more effective secondary response against the pathogen.
Answer:
A. Salamanders
Explanation:
Specialists species are species that can thrive in a unique and limited range of resources. They require a specific environmental condition to reproduce and survive in environment and also have limited or few diets they need for nutrition. These limiting characteristics put them at a disadvantage of being endangered and threatened.
Salamanders are endangered species that are fast going into extinction. They require wetland (freshwater pools) for reproduction to be possible, and feed mainly on insects. This makes them specialist species.
Ospreys, snapping turtles, and beavers are all generalist species. They can all thrive in a wide range of environmental conditions, and also have varieties of diets they can get nutrition from to survive.
Answer:
The first plant demonstrate stunt growth. The second one demonstrate rapid growth
Explanation:
The first one lacks proper care and is not exposed to sunlight. The second one is the opposite of the first one
A field habitat vegetated by grass and other non-woody plants (grasslands) is known as a meadow. They are of ecological benefit as they are open, sunny regions, which fascinate and support fauna and flora that could not survive in other conditions.
In the given case, when a fungus colonizes the meadow and destructs the majority of its vegetation, which comprises species of small shrubs and grasses, then this may result in the decline of herbivore species due to lack of vegetation on which they survive, which will eventually result in the reduction of carnivore species, as they feed on herbivores.
