What else can I help you with?
True or false bacteriophages are viruses that parasitize bacteria?
I wouldn't call bacteriophages parasites, but yes they are viruses which infect bacteria.
True or False. Viruses and bacteria are radically different?
True. Viruses are not considered alive and require a host cell to replicate, while bacteria are single-celled organisms capable of independent replication. Additionally, viruses contain genetic material either in the form of DNA or RNA, whereas bacteria have their genetic material in the form of DNA.
What are two reasons that viruses are considered non living?
Some argue that viruses are not living organisms because they can only replicate themselves by infecting a host cell and therefore cannot reproduce on their own. And also viruses do not metabolize on their own.
Can viruses reproduce with dead or alive cells?
Viruses cannot reproduce on their own because they lack the necessary cellular machinery. They need to infect a living host cell in order to replicate and produce more virus particles. In some cases, viruses can infect and replicate within host cells that are no longer alive, but this is not considered true reproduction.
True or false Before a DNA molecule can replicate itself it must make itself more compact This is accomplished by the double helix coiling up on itself?
True. Before DNA can replicate itself, it must condense and coil up on itself to form more compact structures called chromosomes. This compactness helps to organize the genetic material and ensure that it is efficiently replicated during cell division.
Is it true mitochondria are able to replicate themselves?
Yes they have own DNA. So they replicate by their own
What is true viruses?
Viruses are cellular parasites.
True or false bacteriophages are viruses that parasitize bacteria?
I wouldn't call bacteriophages parasites, but yes they are viruses which infect bacteria.
True or false viruses are smaller than bacterial cells?
True. Viruses are smaller than bacterial cells. Bacterial cells are living organisms and are much larger in size compared to viruses, which are non-living particles that require a host cell to replicate.
How computer viruses replicate?
"True" viruses replicate by injecting their code into another executable program. Most likely, the "host" program is a commonly used application such as Microsoft Word so that this guarantees the virus is able to successfully replicate. When the infected program is executed, control diverts to the virus, which the copies and infects another program, and then returns control back to the host program. Long loading times for programs are a common sign of virus infections.
What true about viruses?
it can cause problemes on your pc, it can erase your entire hard drive, it can replicate(multiply). more info coming soon
What HIV viruses are able to mutate producing slightly different strains of the virus.?
true
True or False. Viruses and bacteria are radically different?

Additionally, viruses contain genetic material either in the form of DNA or RNA, whereas bacteria have their genetic material in the form of DNA.
What is true about viruses?
Viruses are microscopic infectious agents that can only replicate inside living cells. They can infect all types of life forms, from animals and plants to bacteria. Viruses are responsible for a wide range of diseases, from the common cold to more severe illnesses like COVID-19.
What are two reasons that viruses are considered non living?

Are HIV viruses able to mutate producing slightly different strains of the virus?
true
What must be true for science to be able to answer a question?
It must be testable for science to be able to answer a question.
