Does the influenza virus readily change the expressions of its genetic material?

∙ 14y ago
RNA genome of influenza virus is segmented in to 7 pieces. It has the unique property of undergoing two types of genetic variation ie antigenic drift and antigenic shift. In antigenic drift the antigenic variations are minor where genetic recombination take place between strains of two similar species whereas in antigenic shift the recombination take place between strains of dissimilar species leading to major antigenic variations and hence seasonal epidemics.

Which material does hemoglobin readily combine?
Hemoglobin combines readily with oxygen.
Any material that will readily release electrons?
conductor
How does the material of the container affect its melting time of the ice?
Hot material generally melts more readily than cold material.
Electrical currents can flow readily through which type of material?
Conductors.
How do chemists define a liquid?
A liquid is any material which readily assumes the shape of its container at room temperature.
Electrons do not readily flow through what material?
The material that electrons do not readily flow through in the electrical trade is classed an an insulator.
Which material does hemoglobin readily combine?
Hemoglobin combines readily with oxygen.
Any material that will readily release electrons?
conductor
What Material through which water is readily flows is termed?
permeable
How does the material of the container affect its melting time of the ice?
Hot material generally melts more readily than cold material.
What is the term material that transmit light readily?
They are called Transparent materials.
Electrical currents can flow readily through which type of material?
Conductors.
What is the term for a material through which electrons do not readily flow?
This would likely be an "insulator" as opposed to a conductor.
Is polystyrene a hazardous material?
Polystyrene is not a hazardous material (dangerous good) in transportation. However, in circumstances where a fire might be a problem, polystyrene, which can readily and rapidly burn, can be a very hazardous material.
How do chemists define a liquid?
A liquid is any material which readily assumes the shape of its container at room temperature.
Plants are more readily manipulated by genetic engineering than are animals because?
a somatic plant cell can often give rise to a complete plant
Why is strawberry DNA easier to extract?
It is a polyploid fruit i.e. it has several sets of chromosome complements as a result of scientific intervention. This results in a high DNA content. Also, the pulp is easily broken down meaning the cell walls and membranes can be more readily disrupted thereby releasing more genetic material.
