latent infection by animal viruses is most similar to which of the following events: lytic life cycle in bacteriophages O antigen shift antigen drift persistent infection by animal viruses O lysogenic life cycle in bacteriophages
Antigenic shifts in influenza viruses are represented by dra-matic changes in the viral antigens. It is likely they arise fromrare events in which:(a) Two different influenza viruses infect a cell at the sametime(b) Two separate viruses undergo lysogenic conversion(c) Two viruses conjugate(d) Mutations accumulate(e) All of the above
e) Bats have been implicated as the source of many viruses against which humans have a difficult time mounting an effective immune response. Interestingly, flight plays an important role. i) Describe and explain i) the role that flight plays in creating these kinds of viruses, ii) how the viruses cross over into humans, and iii) why our immune response has a more difficult time mounting an effective response against them
People infected with SARS-Cov-2(the cornavirus that causes covid-19) can show an array of different symptoms and comlications. One complication occurs in the same patients is the development of blood clots throughout the body. Thevirus can infect endothelial cells. How are endothelia involved with blood clotting? If you were to design a pharmaceutical (medication) taht reduced blood clotting, how might it work? There are many ways to approach this question. Please mention at least one SPECIFIC REACTION in your explanation.
