What else can I help you with?
What does the cell make mRNA from the bacteriophage?
From genes
How do viruses get into bacterial cell?
A virus has proteins on its capsid that bind to living host cell. Once the virus has attached it enters the cell or inserts DNA/RNA into the cell.
What is the tail of a bacteriophage specialized for?
The tail of a bacteriophage is specialized for attaching to the host bacterial cell and injecting its genetic material into the cell. It helps the bacteriophage in recognizing and binding to specific receptors on the bacterial cell surface.
4 substance that enters and leaves through the cell membrane?
food enters, waste leaves
Why would the bacteriophage shown in the transparency not be able to enter any other type of cell?
because the bacteriophage is set to do so
The way that genetic material of a bacteriophage enters a bacterium is most like the way that?
a key unlocks a door. The genetic material of a bacteriophage enters a bacterium by attaching to the bacterial cell wall and injecting its DNA or RNA into the host cell, taking over the cell's machinery to replicate itself. Just like a key unlocks a door to gain entry, the bacteriophage's genetic material gains entry into the bacterium to begin infection.
When a T2 bacteriophage infects an E. coli cell what part of the phage enters the bacterial cytoplasm?
the whole phage
What does bacteriophage inject into a cell?
A bacteriophage ("eater of bacteria") inject their DNA (or RNA) into the cell.
What does the cell make mRNA from the bacteriophage?
From genes

What does it mean when a cell enters anaphase before all of its chromosomes have attached to the spindle?
If a cell enters anaphase before all chromosomes have attached to the spindle, it can lead to unequal distribution of genetic material to the daughter cells. This can result in aneuploidy, or an abnormal number of chromosomes in the daughter cells, leading to potential genetic disorders.
What substance enters and leaves a plant cell through the process of osmosis?
Water enters and leaves a plant cell through the process of osmosis. When the concentration of water inside the cell is higher than outside, water will move into the cell, and when the concentration is higher outside, water will leave the cell.
A bacteriophage is necessary for toxin production in?
A bacteriophage is necessary for toxin production in certain types of bacteria. This occurs when the bacteriophage infects the bacterial cell and inserts its genetic material, which can include genes encoding toxins. The bacterial cell then produces the toxin as part of the infection process.
Is T4 bacteriophage a DNA or RNA virus?
T4 bacteriophage is a DNA virus. It infects bacteria by injecting its DNA into the host cell and hijacking the cell's machinery to replicate its genetic material.
