No HIV, like all viruses lacks the machinery for self replication. Viruses instead must infect a host cell and hijack the cell to make more viruses. In the case of HIV, it must infect a living human cell in order to copy itself.
I believe it is a spyware/worm that sends out copies of itself via Windows Live Messenger without you noticing.
The ability of an organism to reproduce allows it to give rise to another organism like itself. This process can occur through various methods, such as sexual or asexual reproduction, where genetic material is passed from parent to offspring. This genetic transmission ensures that the offspring share similar traits and characteristics with the parent organism, maintaining the species' lineage.
If it is making an exact replica of itself it might be binary fission and the organism (usually a cell) splits itself in half to create another cell. The second cell is called the daughter cell which looks just like the parent cell. binary fission is a type of asexual reproduction
To ensure that newly formed cells are genetically identical to the organisms original diploid cells otherwise they could be cancerous to the organism
A living thing that produces another living thing like itself is called a parent.
Since viruses are nonliving they have to invade and hijack a living cells DNA to make more copies of itself. If it cannot do this it cannot make more copies of itself.
a seashell is not an organism, there needs to be a living thing in it to make it into an organismThe seashell itself is not an organism, but the animal that lives in it is an organism.The seashell itself is not an organism, but the animal that lives in it is an organism.
The term used for an organism living in or on another depends on the nature of the relationship.- If the relationship is mutually beneficial (mutalism) then the organism can be called a symbiont.- If the relationship does not benefit the host, the organism can be called a parasite.Parasites can be endoparasites, which live inside the host, or ectoparasites, which live on the host.Some biologists use the term symbiont for any organism in a close interaction with another. This would mean parasites could also be called symbionts.
A carrier is an organism that harbors and transmits a pathogen without getting sick, while a vector is an organism that transmits a pathogen from one host to another. Carriers may not show symptoms but can pass on the pathogen, whereas vectors are necessary for the pathogen to be transmitted between hosts.
