additional outside research to answer the questions: 1 Discuss the two methods of viral replication. The two methods of viral replication are done in animal viruses. The first method deals with DNA viruses and the second is RNA viruses. In the DNA virus‚ the viral DNA enters the nucleus of the host cell. Than it is transcribed into mRNA and leaves the nucleus into the cytoplasm. The early mRNA then translates into early viral proteins. The early viral proteins deal with the replication of viral DNA

manufacturing When first created‚ GM foods were to improve crop protection for easier growth and shipping. Now they are used to enhance taste and visual appearance. Why do we use them? Virus resistance is achieved through the introduction of a gene from certain viruses which cause disease in plants. Virus resistance makes plants less susceptible to diseases caused by such viruses‚ resulting in larger manufacturing. Difference between “natural” and “ORGANIC” In the food industry today

area. The virus can be carried out by bodily fluids equaling to saliva‚ semen‚ fluid in the female genital tract‚ as well as fluid from herpes sores. Once the virus has contact and successfully entered the mucous membranes‚ it begins to replicate. Replication of this virus allows the breakouts to become more frequent. The virus is then transported within the nervous system to their roots‚ where it remains latent‚for some period of time. During this inactive periods‚ the virus cannot be transmitted

reactivity of the surface glycoproteins‚ the haemagglutinin (H1-H16) and the neuraminidase (N1-N9) molecules (Fouchier et al.‚ 2005). Equine influenza (EI) is caused by two subtypes H7N7 and H3N8. Outbreaks due to H7N7 are limited as the isolation of the virus has not been reported since last two decades. Recent infection in India (2008-2009) was associated with H3N8 (Virmani et al.‚ 2009). As per the seroservillance report of year 2012-13‚ 21 out of 1482 samples were found to be positive for equine influenza

very close contact between the two species. When the cetacean morbillivirus infects the host cell‚ it stays in the infected host for only a short time after infection (Ohishi 186). Once a host cell gets infected with the cetacean morbillivirus‚ the virus can be spread from animal to animal by contact with infected animals through entry of the eyes‚ stomach‚ and mouth‚ wounds in the skin‚ or reproductive tract. The cetacean morbillivirus can also be transmitted from an infected animal to a healthy host

One Health- Exam One 1. A) Why is the One Health paradigm important? The One Health initiative is a change in basic assumptions that focuses on surveillance of the environment‚ animals‚ and humans to predict occurrence of an outbreak before it happens. This is important in improving the health of communities because preventative measures will be used and it also makes people aware of what could happen if preventative measures were not taken. Scientists and doctors worldwide collaborate to develop

fungi‚ and bacteria. Viruses that infect bacteria are called bacteriophages‚ or phages. The nucleic acid of a virus is protected by a protein coat called the capsid. Each capsid is composed of protein subunits called capsomeres. In some viruses‚ the capsid is covered by an envelope‚ which usually consists of some combination of lipids‚ proteins‚ and carbohydrates. Depending on the virus‚ envelopes may or may not be covered by spikes‚ which are carbohydrate-protein complexes that project from the

The virus known as Measles There are many viruses today that at one time were a deadly disease‚ however because of advances in technology and vaccinations‚ we no longer give them a second thought. Prior to the discovery of a vaccination‚ the United States reported a total of over 50‚000 cases of measles outbreaks each year with 450-500 cases resulting in death. (NCIRD) Since the disbursement of an effective vaccination‚ the measles has been almost eradicated in the United States; however it is

what’s the difference between a bacteria and a virus. A bacterium is one of the three living domains of life. It is a prokaryote which means it does not house a nucleus or membrane-bounded organelles. However‚ it does have a nucleoid region where the DNA is stored. It can be said that bacteria is more like us because they can share their DNA with one another through conjugation and even pick up other DNA through transformation. On the other hand‚ a virus is not made up of cells. They are acellular.
