Answer:

The correct answer would be the virus envelope.

Viral envelope is a protective covering present around the capsid proteins in some viruses.

It is usually derived from the cell membrane of the host and thus it is composed of lipid and viral proteins.

It provides stability to the viral particle, helps in protecting the viral genome, and aids in the fusion of the virus with the membrane of the host.

Examples of viruses in which envelope is present: herpesviruses, poxviruses, flavivirus, hepatitis D et cetera.

Examples of viruses in which envelope is absent: adenoviridae , papillomaviridae , picornaviridae , caliciviridae et cetera.

Explanation:

Metabolism is defined as the total sum of the chemical reactions which synthesized in every cell of living things and provides energy for formation of new organic materials and vital processes (such as movement, growth, reproduction and development).

In living metabolism, enzyme mediated chemical reactions takes place. Energy which comes from nutrients and solar energy fueling multistep reactions and converting into the molecules which is necessary for maintenance and growth.

mel-nik [20]

True:

Advantages. PWR reactors are verystable due to their tendency toproduce less power as temperatures increase; this makes the reactor easier to operate from a stability standpoint. PWR turbine cycle loop is separate from the primary loop, so the water in the secondary loop is not contaminated by radioactive materials.
