BIOLOGY 11 HELP (easy questions) [pics]
I'm either very right, or very wrong. Could someone state the right answers? Thanks
I'm positive the first one is right. The second one, I'm 99% sure... The others, not so much
First one: viruses are classified by properties, not the cell they infect. Properties can be size or shape
Also by chemical composition and structure of the genome
i would say B
you've got question 2 right :D
almost sure 3 is correct too
4 is d so correct 5 is also correct
seems like only question 1 was false
okay thanks so much! Can you help me with 5 more? That would be everything i need help with...
See if you can look at these. If not, that's totally fine thanks! I actually haven't answered the last 4... see what you think
And I think number one is false...
HIV is a retrovirus, and it definetely contains reverse transcriptase
oh, so i was right after all... haha
oh nevermind... i was false
A retrovirus does not contain a DNA genome, It has a RNA genome. so A is the answer
For the second one, what do you think is the answer?
b.
no wait, a virus?
can you grow a bacteria in pure culture?
It must be protist.
oh wait! It is bacteria
I just read the question better. I think it's bacteria
no :P bacteria, cyanobacteria and protist all grow on pure culture (not living) and they can be filtered/extracted. A virus is so smal it can't be filtered out of an extract. PLUS it won't grow on pure culture, it needs living cells to grown in.
So i was right when i said virus... ahh.. That TOTALLY makes sense. I guess I just didn't fully understand the question
Thanks
hehe :P how about 8?
Pretty sure it's protein coat.
yep :) next
since the bacteriophage physically injects the nucleic acid strand into the host cell, i would assume that it would make the product poisonous...
No phages attack the bacteria and slow or stop the fermentation process, resulting in reduced product quality. So i'd say C :)
ahh. thanks. as for the last one... I would say A. because a virus is mostly compiled of RNA and a protein coat... Am I right?
Mind you, it could be B. protein.
I'm gonna say B. Protein.
they probably mean a bacteriophage with "virus". It's head is mainly protein
Well, thanks for your help. Seeya!
You're welcome :)
