A student produces a labeled drawing of a virus for a presentation. The student states that the capsid has a function similar to the nuclear membrane found in animal cells.
Which of these describes the similar functions of capsids and nuclear membranes?
Both transport proteins throughout the structures.
Both provide energy for activities in the structures.
Both protect genetic information for the structures.
Both code for the proteins needed for reproduction of the structures.
In 1898 Friedrich Loeffler and Paul Frosch found evidence that the cause of the highly contagious hoof-and-mouth disease in livestock was a microscopic infectious particle. It was discovered that this particle requires a host cell to reproduce. Which pathogen is most likely responsible for causing hoof-and-mouth disease in livestock?
A bacterium, because it is contagious
A protist, because it is microscopic
A fungus, because it infects livestock
A virus, because it requires a host cell to reproduce
In the 1880s, Louis Pasteur developed a method of weakening viruses. The weakened viruses could be injected into healthy individuals. How is this method effective in fighting viral diseases?
The immune system develops antibodies in response to the weakened viruses.
The weakened viruses attach to unaffected viruses in the host and interrupt the viral reproductive cycle
The rate of genetic mutation in the host is decreased due to the introduction of weakened viruses.
Weakened viruses are unable to enter the host organism.
H1N1 flu is a highly contagious viral infection caused by the influenza A (H1N1) virus. The symptoms of H1N1 flu are listed in the box below. An antiviral agent administered within 48 hours of the appearance of symptoms can reduce the severity of the illness.
Why is it important to administer an antiviral agent to an infected person within 48 hours of the appearance of symptoms?
The H1N1 virus is dormant in cells.
The H1N1 virus does not mutate.
The H1N1 virus replicates quickly.
The H1N1 virus is transmitted through a vector host, such as a mosquito
Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is an illness caused by a coronavirus. Symptoms including a high fever, headaches, and body aches typically occur two to seven days after infection by the virus. SARS is more serious in elderly patients. This information suggests that the reproductive cycle of the SARS virus is —
lysogenic, because the virus is a coronavirus
lytic, because the virus causes respiratory illness
lysogenic, because the virus primarily affects older people
lytic, because of the quick onset of symptoms after infection

Salivary amylase is an enzyme in the human body that digests carbohydrates from food. When food mixed with saliva enters the stomach, the action of salivary amylase slows dramatically. Which causes salivary amylase enzyme to stop digesting food?
The pH of the stomach is lower than in the mouth.
The concentration of food decreases in the stomach.
The temperature of the food increases in the stomach.
The food is mixed more in the mouth than in the stomach.
