Answer/Explanation
Characteristics of Life Present in Viruses:
- has a defined boundary - viruses are made up simply of genetic material surrounded by a<u> protein capsid </u>and sometimes a lipid membrane
Characteristics of Life Absent in Viruses:
- made up of one or more cells - one of the main arguments for why viruses are not living is that they are <u>not cellular</u>
- uses energy - this is a tricky one. They don't use or produce their own energy. However, in order to reproduce they do hijack the host cells and <u>steal energy</u> from them in order to reproduce
- exhibits growth and development - although viruses do <u>reproduce</u>, the individual viral particles do not exhibit growth or development
- possess internal organisation - other than the fact they ahve genetic material, the inside of a virus does not contain internal organization like a cytosol, instead conssiting of the bare minimum amount of proteins to survive
- eliminates waste - since they do not have their own metabolism, they have no waste to eliminate
Answer:
A. absorbs light
Explanation:
For an electron to move from a lower energy level to a higher energy level, energy needs to be added to the atom.
In most cases this required energy will be light: The electron of the atom will absorb the energy of the light and move to a higher energy level.
When said electron comes back to the lower energy level, the atom will conversely give off light.
Answer:
Homogeneous - With a uniform appearance
Heterogeneous - With visible differences in the mixture
Explanation:
Referring to mixtures, homogeneous looks the same throughout, while heterogeneous has particles or whatnot.
Basically:
Homo means same
Hetero means different
C. Rutherford would be the answer
