Which of the following is/are advantages of this type of vaccine compared to an inactivated virus vaccine? Select ALL correct answers. a) The vaccine is more stable for transport. b) The vaccine does not contain the virus so it cannot give you COVID-19. c) The vaccine can be rapidly produced in a slightly different form to protect from variants of SARS-CoV-2. d) The vaccine does not need a booster.arrow_forward"Genome-Wide Association Studies Identify Genome Variations That Contribute to Disease" Explain this ?arrow_forward
- For the mutations described below, categorize them in each of the following ways: [transition, transversion, insertion, or deletion]; [synonymous, missense, nonsense, frameshift, or regulatory]; [beneficial, deleterious, or neutral] a. A mutation in the SARS-CoV2 virus changes a codon in the gene encoding the spike protein from AAG to AAC. This mutation increases the ability of the virus to spread from person to person. b. Becker muscular dystrophy results in progressive wasting of skeletal and heart muscle tissue. A patient is found to have a mutation in the dystrophin gene (DMD) in the first nucleotide of intron 25. Normally, a G is in this position, but the patient has an A. c. Fur color in house cats is affected by several genes that encode pigment-producing enzymes.

- Type S Streptococcus pneumoniae bacterium is lethal and will kill its host. If heat inactivated the S strain dies and becomes nonlethal. Type R Streptococcus pneumoniae is a nonvirulent strain of bacteria. What would occur if one were to inject both the R strain and heat-killed S strains into a host organism such as the mouse? The R strain would be transformed into the virulent S strain and kill the host. Neither the S nor the R strain would change. The R strain would be transformed into the virulent S strain and not affect the host. The S strain would be transformed into the nonvirulent R strain and not affect the host The S strain would be transformed into the nonvirulent R strain and kill the host.arrow_forwardAn outbreak of Ebola between 2014 and 2016 resulted in 28,616 cases and 11,310 deaths in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone. An additional 36 cases and 15 deaths were reported outside these 3 countries. This deadly disease urged the need for extensive research on Ebola to better understand and treat the disease and prevent future outbreaks. Ebola is a - SSRNA virus. What does this mean for how it is converted into proteins? Does this virus require additional machinery to be infectious? Can you hypothesize based on how it replicates in the cell what scientists might hope to target for treatment or prevention of Ebola?arrow_forwardMad cow disease, or bovine spongiform encephalopathy, appears to be caused by a novel infectious agent: a protein that replicates by causing related proteins to modify their structure from a harmless shape to a dangerous one. These prions (short for “proteinaceous infectious particles”) also appear to be the cause of several other spongiform encephalopathy diseases, such as scrapie in sheep, and kuru and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in humans. Which of the following observations or experiments would not support the hypothesis that a prion causes spongiform encephalopathy? (a) The brains of many sheep with scrapie contain prion proteins, but the brains of most sheep without scrapie do not. (b) There is a high incidence of kuru in populations of people who consume brain tissue from prion-infected animals. (c) Coyotes that feed on cows with mad cow disease do not subsequently develop spongiform encephalopathy. (d) When introduced into sheep brain cells in culture, prions cause the normal…arrow_forward
- To understand the genes responsible for growth and infectivity in a disease-causing bacterial strain, you perform chemical mutagenesis on a culture of these bacteria. In the course of your investigation into the properties of the resulting mutants, you identify a set of mutant bacteria that is still viable but their virulence is significantly impaired. How might these mutants be useful for vaccine development?arrow_forwardThere have been recent outbreaks of dog flu in the US. Why doesn't this virus infect humans? A) The virus can replicate in cells of all species but can only egress from dog cells. B) The genetic code of the virus is the same as that in dog cells but is different from other organisms. C) The virus can only attach to dog cells. D) The virus can enter cells of all species but can only replicate in dog cells.arrow_forwardYou were able to obtain the RNA of the influenza virus.
