Textbook Question
Chapter 19, Problem 8TYU
SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY When bacteria infect an animal, the number of bacteria In the body increases in an exponential fashion (graph A). After infection by a virulent animal virus with a Iytic replicative cycle, there is no evidence of infection for a while. Then the number of viruses rises suddenly and subsequently increases in a series of steps ($raph B). Explain the difference in the curves.

You have discovered a new disease-causing virus. It has a negative sense RNA genome. Infected
individuals often have few-to-no symptoms, but are continuously infectious to other individuals for
months after initial infection. Which of the following is likely true about this virus? (Select all that
apply)
Its genome must first circularize before being translated into proteins
It carries a replicase protein into a host cell upon infection.
The symptoms of this virus exemplify a latent infection.
The virus has infected every cell within an infected individual.
The virus must first synthesize the complementary strand RNA before expressing new proteins.
The symptoms of this virus exemplify a chronic infection.
The 1918 influenza strain killed millions of people world-wide. After recovering the
virus from preserved lung tissue and sequencing the genome, which of the scientific
findings did NOT account for the viruses lethality in humans?
The hemagglutination protein was associated with high lung damage.
The virus came directly from birds, without first circulating in pigs.
The virus was independent from a cellular protease for cell entry, and utilized
neuraminidase instead.
The virus came from bats.

In the transfer diagram, ^ is the rate at which individuals are born, p is the fraction of
infants who are vaccinated, ß is the rate at which susceptible individuals become infected
by those who are infectious, is the natural death rate, o is the rate at which exposed
individuals become infectious, and is the rate at which infected individuals are treated
and recovered with permanent immunity.

- Build a model of a prokaryotic cell using any material of your choice. In your model be sure to include all the structures appropriate to your cell. You may model a bacterial cell or an archaea You will model at least 4 structures in any model. Nextbuild a model of a virus using the same type of materials. You may choose any type of virus but be sure you can illustrate the key features of a virus (head shape for example) Once complete, take multiple photographs of your models from all anglesInclude these images in a document that also contains the following completed table format.

Both involve entry of the entire virus particle into the host cell. C. Both can have segmented genetic material. D. Bacteriophages leave the capsid outside of the cell that they infect, while eukaryotic virus infections involve the entry of the capsid with the nucleic acid.arrow_forward
- Viruses display many of the characteristics of living organisms. In particular, they reproduce, creating new virus particles. During reproduction, viruses make copies of their genetic material, and some of the copies contain mutations that are beneficial to the virus. For example, HIV (human immunodeficiency virus), the virus that causes the disease AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome) mutates so often that its surface proteins change faster than we can develop antiviral drugs. New drug-resistant strains of HIV are appearing constantly. However, viruses can reproduce only after entering a living cell of an organism, because viruses hijack the cell’s machinery and use it to produce new viruses. Where does that combination of characteristics place viruses on the scale of nonlife to life? Are viruses living organisms? Nonliving? If neither of those categories fits the properties of viruses, how should they be classified?arrow_forwardViruses replicate by entering a cell and using the host cell's enzymes to produce more copies of itself. SARS-COV2 is a spherical virus that has been observed to be as small as 50 nm in diameter. If we approximate a human epithelial cell to be a cylinder with a 58 um height and 5 um diameter, what is the maximum number of SARS-COV2 viruses that could fit inside the cell?arrow_forwardThe Archaea is similar to the Eukarya in the following characteristic except? initiator 1RNA (protein synthesis) O 16S FRNA nucleotide sequence sensitivity to antibiotics types of RNA polymerase The Archaea differ from the Eubacteria in the following characteristic except: * O initiator tRNA (protein synthesis) origin of DNA replication sensitivity to antibiotics types of RNA polymerasearrow_forward
- How might a bacteriophage be used to treat a bacterial infection? – this question relates to question # 2. Address specificity. Why can viruses only infect specific cells? Why would the host cell be safe from infection?arrow_forwardAccording to Philip Bell’s viral eukaryogenesis hypothesis, genes for the glycolytic pathway, theKrebs cycle, electron transport, and oxidative phosphorylation were all provided by:A. an endosymbiotic gram-negative eubacteriumB. an endosymbiotic archaeobacteriumC. a gram-positive eubacterial host cellD. a double-stranded DNA virusE. an archaeobacterial host cellarrow_forwardWhy can’t no one answer this question?arrow_forward
- Biology A gene that is essential to the existence of a bacterium (e.g., the 16S rRNA gene) would most likely be classified as part of the __________ genome. Group of answer choices 1) Core 2) Accessory 3) Reduced 4) Transferred 5) Mutated.arrow_forwardA viral mutation that causes changes in the glycoprotein spikes would affect which aspect of the virus? The virus would become lysogenic and incorporate its genome into the host cell genome. The virus would enter the host by a combination of endocytosis and fusion. The virus would lose its viral envelope and become a naked virus. The virus would attach to different host cells and its host range would be altered. The viral genome would not require uncoating once inside the host cell.arrow_forwardAccording to Philip Bell’s viral eukaryogenesis hypothesis, genes for DNA replication, RNA transcription, protein translation, and histone proteins were all provided by: an endosymbiotic gram-negative eubacterium an endosymbiotic archaeobacterium a gram-positive eubacterial host cell a double-stranded DNA virus an archaeobacterial host cellarrow_forward
