What do viruses do with their DNA?
Viruses use their DNA or RNA to replicate themselves within a host cell. They hijack the cell's machinery to make copies of their genetic material and produce new virus particles, which can then infect other cells. This leads to the spread of the virus within the host and potentially to other individuals.
What does HIV use to reproduce?
HIV is a retrovirus as it transcribed mRNA into DNA. It invades a host cell and uses the cells machinery to copy its own genetic material. This produces multiple copies of the virus within the host cell, which then ruptures releasing the virus and the process is repeated.
Does bacteriophage feed on bacteria?
Yes, that is the meaning of the name " bacteriophage. " " bacteria eater. " Though they hijack the metabolic and replicative process of bacteria to replicate themselves and not actually eat the bacteria.
Does a virus use sexual reproduction?
Viruses cannot reproduce themselves alone. They inject their DNA into living cells of a host organism. The virus cells use the host cells to develop themselves and leave the cell when ready. Viruses are not living, so they are dependent on a living organism for reproduction.
When a cell undergoes meiosis what will be the result?
Mitoses does take place in sexually reproducing organisms. There are two types of cells in your body, somatic cells (heart, skin, bones, etc.) and sex cells (eggs and sperm). Somatic cells all use mitosis to make more of themselves. Sex cells use meiosis to make more of themselves. If sex cells used mitosis instead of meiosis they would have too many chromosomes and the baby would have problems (if it survived at all).
Why does your body use mitosis?
The body uses mitosis for growth, repair, and maintenance of tissues. Mitosis allows cells to divide and produce exact copies of themselves, ensuring that the body's cells have the correct number of chromosomes.
What do viruses do with their DNA?
Viruses use their DNA or RNA to replicate themselves within a host cell. They hijack the cell's machinery to make copies of their genetic material and produce new virus particles, which can then infect other cells. This leads to the spread of the virus within the host and potentially to other individuals.
Where did the name cell phones come from?
they use cells to power themselves and make communications instead of wires
What do viruses need to reporduce?
Viruses need a host cell to reproduce. Once they have infected a host cell, they use the cell’s machinery to make copies of themselves. This process eventually leads to the host cell bursting open and releasing new viruses to infect other cells.
How do you use copies in a sentence?
Mrs.J Went To Make Copies Of The Homework During Her Lunch Break.
What are two way organisms use nutrients from food?
they use it to build body parts and make cells
How does gene therapy aim to cure muscular dystrophy?
introduces good copies of the dystrophin gene into muscle cells. The goal is to allow the existing muscle cells to use the new gene to produce the dystrophin it cannot make with its flawed gene
Do crayfish have cells?
No, crayfish use claws and force to defend themselves
Do crayfish have stinging cells?
No, crayfish use claws and force to defend themselves
What does HIV use to reproduce?

How could you use genetic engineering techniques to make transformed bacteria that produce the enzyme?
Extract DNA from the cells of people who can make the digestion enzyme. Cut the DNA with restriction enzymes to cut out the gene that codes for the enzyme. Use gel electrophoresis to locate the gene. Then, use polymerase chain reaction to make copies of the gene. Choose a plasmid that has an antibiotic-resistance genetic marker, and cut the plasmid with the smae restriction enzyme use to cut out the hyman gene. Insert the copies of the human gene into the plasmids. Allow bacterial cells to take in the plasmids. Select for transformed bacteria by growing them in a culture containing the antibiotic. These bacteria will make the digestion enzyme.
What part of plant cells do plants use to make food?
The part of cells that plants use to make their own food are chloroplasts.
