Which best describes a difference between transcription and DNA replication?
Sedaia [141]

The right answer is A.Transcription uses uracil.

The genes carried by the DNA will be encoded in another form: messenger RNA, during a process called "transcription".

The DNA and RNA molecules are chemically very close, but the second has an extra oxygen (in red on the right of the letters) on the sugars (riboses) that make up its nucleotides (the DNA actually contains deoxyribose). In addition, the thymine (T) of DNA is replaced by uracil (U) in RNA.

In your own words, explain why a virus such as the rhinovirus, which relies on close contact to spread, might evolve to favor le
Zielflug [23.3K]

Rhinoviruses are transmitted through the air or via contact. We might expect this sort of transmission to require a fairly healthy host (one who gets out and comes into contact with others) and, hence, to select against virulent strains. If we take precautions and try to stay away from people or avoid any contact with people, more hand-washing stations, increased attention to sanitization, and isolation of patients will help to reduce the transmission of the disease and, in the process, may favor the evolution of less virulent strains of the virus.
