(C) Most of the scientists do not consider viruses to be alive because they are unable to reproduce of there own .
Instead of reproducing on there own they use their host cellular mechanism to reproduce themselves . And in this process they make there host sick .
Most scientists do not consider viruses to be “alive” because a) they have no genes b)...
im not sure how to answer this question, would i just circle
everything thats true because all of them except 1 are true, "all
of the above" doesnt apply, assuming that the "viruses can
reproduce provided they have a host cell" is not true
28. Select all of the facts that support the concept that viruses are nonliving agents. a. Viruses are not able to reproduce outside of a host cell. True b. Viruses are unable carry out metabolic processes...
Question 1 1 pts Which of the following is true? Viruses cannot evolve because they are not technically alive; they cannot replicate on their own When viruses hijack a host's cells to replicate, mistakes made in the copying of their DNA or RNA can generate a huge number of genetic variants in the virus population A mutation in the molecules involved in binding to a host cell that allows binding to a new host species will not affect the virus's...
I need the answer to this asap

Choose the true statement about housekeeping genes in Escherichia coli. Housekeeping genes are constitutively expressed. A housekeeping gene's expression should stop when the cell is placed in a different environment. Most of E. coli's genome encodes housekeeping genes. Examples of housekeeping genes in E. coli include antibiotic resistance genes and lactose catabolism genes. Choose the frameshift mutation that is the riskiest for a prokaryotic cell. A deletion of three DNA nucleotides from the DNA template strand A deletion of one...

It takes 6 turns of the cycle, 18 molecules of ATP, and 12 molecules of NADPH to make a glucose molecule. b. The cycle is exergonic. c. It takes 3 turns of the cycle, 9 molecules of ATP, and 6 molecules of...
