3. Polyhedral viruses

4. Helical viruses

What is virus structure?

Viruses are infectious particles comprising of two components:

An outer structural component called the Capsid.

The inner genetic material made of single stranded or double stranded RNA (Ribonucleic Acid) or DNA (Deoxyribonucelic Acid).

The Capsid structure is made up of glycoproteins.

These glycoproteins are encoded by genes present in the viral genome.

The viruses are incapable of reproducing on its own.

They infect the host cells and hijack their metabolic machinery which includes the protein-synthesizing machinery and also utilize the raw materials of the host cells to produce the progeny virions which are then released out the host cells.

The capsid structure is responsible for packaging the viral genome and protecting it from various degrading agents present in the external environment like nucleases.

Thus, this could be the answer.

The number of daylight hours varies according to a site's latitudinal location and the day of the week or season.

How does the length of the day fluctuate throughout the year?

Due to the sphericity of the Earth and its inclination with respect to the Sun, the length of the day or the number of daylight hours depends on the time of year and the latitude of a location.

At latitudes 90°N and 90°S, which are the locations closest to the poles, this fluctuation is particularly pronounced. For instance, the fluctuation of the hours of the day would be as follows in the latitudinal zone of 70°N:

Equinox of spring There is roughly 13.8 hours of daylight each day.

24 hours of light every day on the summer solstice.

12.4 hours of daylight every day during the autumnal equinox.

Zero hours of light each day on the winter solstice.

This variance happens because the Earth revolves around the sun, and the high latitudinal regions occasionally aren't exposed to the sun's rays.

In complete dominance, heter0zyg0us individuals carry both alleles -dominant and recessive- but only express the dominant phentoype. Cross 1: Nn x nn. Cross 2: NN x nn

What is complete dominance?

When the dominant allele completely masks the recessive allele, we talk about complete dominance.

This is the case of individuals that are heter0zyg0us for a particular gene and express the dominant trait. The dominant allele is hiding the expression of the recessive allele.

What is a punnett square?

The Punnett square is a representation that shows the different types of gamete combinations according to the alleles involved in a cross.

Punnett square shows the probabilities of getting offspring with different genotypes and their consequent phenotypes.

So, according to the provided data,

Cross 1: gray fur x black fur

F1) 3 gray fur: 2 black fur

Cross 2: gray fur x black fur

F1) 0 gray fur: 5 black fur

By looking at the phenotype of progeny produced by family 2, and assuming complete dominance, we can infere that black is the dominant phenotype. Why is that? because when you crossed a gray animal with a black animal and the whole progeny is black.

So, assuming a diallelic gene coding for the fur color, we will name

N to the dominant allele that codes for blackn to the recessive allele that codes for gray.

Possible genotypes and phenotypes

NN ⇒ Black fur  ⇒ dominant phentoypeNn ⇒ Black fur ⇒ dominant phentoypenn ⇒ Grey fur ⇒ recessive phentoype

Here what you need to analyze is which phentoypes appear among the progeny and their frequencies to get to interprete the parents' genotype.

If both parents are h0m0zyg0us dominant (NN x NN), the whole progeny expresses the dominant trait (100% NN)

If one parent is h0m0zyg0us dominant and the other one heter0zyg0us (NN x Nn), the whole progeny expresses the dominant trait (50%NN and 50%Nn).

If one parent is h0m0zyg0us dominant and the other one h0m0zyg0us recessive (NN x nn), the whole progeny expresses the dominant trait (100% Nn).

If both parents are heter0zyg0us (Nn x Nn), the offspring will express both phenotypes in a ratio 3:1 (25% NN + 50% Nn and 25% nn).

If one parent is h0m0zyg0us recessive and the other one heter0zyg0us (nn x Nn),  the offspring will express both phenotypes in a ratio 1:1 (50% Nn and 50% nn).

If both parents are h0m0zyg0us recessive (nn x nn), the whole progeny will express the recessive trait (100% nn).

Now let us analyze the crosses,

Cross 1: gray fur x black fur

F1) 3 gray fur: 2 black fur

You crossed a black animal with a gray animal and the offspring expresses both phenotypes. So the black animal (dominant phenotype) must be heter0zyg0us for coat color.

Parents' phenotype)  gray   and    black

Parentals)                      nn     x     Nn

Alleles in Gametes)   n      n       N      n        

Punnett square)           N          n

                            n       Nn       nn

                            n       Nn       nn

F1) Genotype

1/2 = 50% of the progeny is expected to be heter0zyg0us, Nn

1/2 = 50% of the progeny is expected to be h0m0zyg0us recessive nn

      Phenotype

1/2 = 50% of the progeny is expected to be black -Nn-

1/2 = 50% of the progeny is expected to be gray -nn-

Cross 2: gray fur x black fur

F1) 0 gray fur: 5 black fur

You crossed a black animal with a gray animal and the offspring expresses only the dominant phenotypes. So the black animal must be h0m0zyg0us dominant for coat color.

Parents' phenotype)  gray   and    black

Parentals)                      nn     x     NN

Alleles in Gametes)   n      n       N      N        

Punnett square)           N         N

                            n       Nn        Nn

                            n       Nn        Nn

F1) Genotype

100% of the progeny is expected to be heter0zyg0us, Nn

      Phenotype

100% of the progeny is expected to be black -Nn-

Remember that the Punnett square does not give you information about the number of individuals that can be produced. It just provide information about probabilities of getting individuals with certain genotype of phenotype and their frequencies.

Jayden is researching the Earth's
plates. How would he describe the
relationship between the Earth's plates
and soil and rocks?

Answers

Answer:

Geologists have hypothesized that the movement of tectonic plates is related to convection currents in the earth's mantle. Convection currents describe the rising, spread, and sinking of gas, liquid, or molten material caused by the application of heat.

The Earth's plates have a crucial relationship with soil and rocks. This connection is characterized by the plates' movement influencing the formation, distribution, and composition of soil and rocks across the planet.

The asthenosphere, which is semi-fluid beneath them, is separated into many tectonic plates that make up the Earth's lithosphere. Convective currents in the mantle cause these plates to move constantly. Processes like subduction, in which one plate falls beneath another, and rifting, in which plates move apart, are fueled by this movement. Mountains, valleys, and oceanic basins are all the result of these dynamic processes, which have a significant impact on the surface of the Earth.

Through volcanic activity and metamorphism, interactions between the plates also aid in the production of different types of rocks. Therefore, the distribution and makeup of soils and rocks on our globe are significantly shaped by plate movement, which also has an impact on landscapes, ecosystems, and geological characteristics.

Hi. You have not informed the experiment that this question relates to, making it difficult to respond to your query. However, I looked up your query on the internet and found one similar to yours that included an experiment that measured the volume of balloons inflated by people's breath.

The volume of the balloons remains constant throughout the number of tests, according to the results of the experiment. This is due to the fact that when we blow, our lungs prefer to express the same amount of air as when we breathe in regular settings. This is most likely due to the fact that all of the balloons were filled with air when the participants were in the same physical and mental condition, i.e., calm and still, causing the volume of air they breathed and emitted to remain constant. If the individuals in the experiment were exerting some physical effort or were stressed and concerned, the amount of air would be different.
