A virus mutates, and therefore it has which of the following traits of living things?(1 point) Responses It grows and develops. It grows and develops. It uses energy. It uses energy. It evolves. It evolves. It is made of cells.
The answer is: They should get the flu vaccine because viruses mutate.
The traits of living things mentioned in the options are:
1. It grows and develops.
2. It uses energy.
3. It evolves.
4. It is made of cells.
Based on these options, a virus possesses the trait of evolving, as it can mutate over time. However, viruses do not possess the traits of growing and developing, using energy, or being made of cells.
Compare a virus to a unicellular organism.(1 point) Responses Viruses need energy; unicellular organisms do not need energy. Viruses need energy; unicellular organisms do not need energy. Viruses reproduce through asexual reproduction; unicellular organisms need a host cell. Viruses reproduce through asexual reproduction; unicellular organisms need a host cell. Neither unicellular organisms nor viruses respond to stimuli. Neither unicellular organisms nor viruses respond to stimuli. Unicellular organisms have a cell membrane made from a lipid bilayer; viruses have a protein coat.
The comparison between a virus and a unicellular organism can be summarized as follows:
1. Viruses need energy; unicellular organisms also need energy: Both viruses and unicellular organisms require energy to carry out their biological functions, although they obtain energy in different ways. Viruses rely on the host cell's machinery for energy, while unicellular organisms generate energy through various metabolic processes.
2. Viruses reproduce through asexual reproduction; unicellular organisms usually reproduce through cell division: Viruses replicate by taking over the cellular machinery of a host cell and producing multiple copies of themselves. Unicellular organisms, on the other hand, typically reproduce through cell division or other forms of asexual reproduction.
3. Neither unicellular organisms nor viruses respond to stimuli: Although both viruses and unicellular organisms carry out various functions, neither of them possesses complex sensory or response mechanisms like multicellular organisms.
4. Unicellular organisms have a cell membrane made from a lipid bilayer; viruses have a protein coat: Unicellular organisms possess a cell membrane composed of a lipid bilayer that separates their internal cellular components from the external environment. In contrast, viruses have a protein coat, known as a capsid, which surrounds their genetic material.
It is important to note that while unicellular organisms are considered living organisms due to their cellular structure, viruses are often regarded as non-living or acellular entities that can only replicate within a host cell.
whats the answer
The correct statement from the provided options is:
Unicellular organisms have a cell membrane made from a lipid bilayer; viruses have a protein coat.
and when i give you the other question please just give me the answer so i can review them
Apologies for the confusion. Please provide the other question, and I will give you a direct answer.
Summarize the lytic cycle.(1 point) Responses The viral DNA incorporates itself with the host cell’s and replicates whenever the host cell replicates itself. The viral DNA incorporates itself with the host cell’s and replicates whenever the host cell replicates itself. A virus injects its genetic material into the host cell, copies itself, and then forms new viruses that burst out of the host cell. A virus injects its genetic material into the host cell, copies itself, and then forms new viruses that burst out of the host cell. A virus copies its genetic material and then splits its cell membranes in half to form identical viruses. A virus copies its genetic material and then splits its cell membranes in half to form identical viruses. A virus lays eggs on the host cell’s protein coat, which then hatch and move on to infect other cells. A virus lays eggs on the host cell’s protein coat, which then hatch and move on to infect other cells.
The correct statement summarizing the lytic cycle is:
"A virus injects its genetic material into the host cell, copies itself, and then forms new viruses that burst out of the host cell."
Differentiate between the lysogenic and lytic cycles.(1 point) Responses The host cell copies its own DNA during the lytic cycle. The host cell copies its own DNA during the lytic cycle. The virus injects DNA into the host cell during the lysogenic cycle. The virus injects DNA into the host cell during the lysogenic cycle. The host cell is destroyed during the lytic cycle. The host cell is destroyed during the lytic cycle. Viral proteins are synthesized during the lysogenic cycle.
The correct differentiation between the lysogenic and lytic cycles is:
- The virus injects its DNA into the host cell during the lysogenic cycle, where it becomes integrated into the host cell's DNA.
- The host cell copies its own DNA during the lytic cycle.
- In the lysogenic cycle, the host cell is not immediately destroyed, while in the lytic cycle, the host cell is eventually destroyed.
- Viral proteins are not synthesized during the lysogenic cycle, but viral proteins are synthesized during the lytic cycle.

I hope this helps! Let me know if there's anything else I can assist you with.
Why do doctors recommend people get the flu vaccine every year rather than every few years?(1 point) Responses They should get the flu vaccine because their bodies already have a resistance. They should get the flu vaccine because their bodies already have a resistance. They should get the flu vaccine because viruses do not mutate. They should get the flu vaccine because viruses do not mutate. They should get the flu vaccine because their bodies do not build up resistance.
