- As a general rule, viruses are not considered to be alive based on several reasons. One such reason is that some viruses use RNA as their genetic material instead of DNA. Which of the five biological themes does this violate? Briefly explain why.arrow_forwardare viruses living or non-living? Why!!arrow_forwardA virus is a submicroscopic infectious agent that replicates only inside the living cells of an organism. It does this by inserting its genetic material (RNA) into the host cell and integrate its genetic material with the host genome. Explain in details how organisms eliminate the expression of viral genes? How this mechanism can prevent virus infections?arrow_forward
- Some mutations that occur in bacteria can cause the loss of phage receptors, and these bacteria become phage resistant. In order for a phage to infect the host bacterium, it is preferred that the cell wall is newly synthesized.why ?arrow_forwardMedications that prevent and treat influenza by binding to neuraminidase on the viral surface act against all the kinds of influenza viruses that infect humans. What does this imply about the nature of the interaction between the medications and the neuraminidase molecules?arrow_forwardWhat part of a eukaryotic cell could be affected by antibiotics that target ribosomes and why?arrow_forward
