- This article highlights a young doctor at Elmhurst Hospital during the beginning of Covid-19 pandemic. Dr. Zikry is quoted as saying: “It’s become very clear to me what a socioeconomic disease this is...”. In addition, the textbook discusses the personal variables and socioeconomic status (SES) that are used to find patterns in disease (pp.112-118). What do you think Dr. Zikry meant by referring to the SES of his patients? Why was it important to find a pattern of personal variables and SES among the of victims of Covid-19 at the beginning of the pandemic?arrow_forwardAlexander Fleming discovered Penicillin, but its full potential as an effective antibiotic was established by other scientists.

- Which of the following are the functions of reverse transcriptase in retroviruses? i) it hydrolyzes the host cell's DNA ii) it uses viral RNA as a template for DNA synthesis iii) it converts host cell RNA into viral DNA iv) it translates viral RNA into proteins v) It uses viral RNA as a template for making complementary RNA strand vi) It degrades RNA from DNA-RNA hybrid Oi, iv and v O ii, iv, v and vi ii and iii ii and viarrow_forwardWhen Wimmer and coworkers announced that they had synthesized the poliovirus, they created considerable controversy. Some people feared that deadly and highly contagious viruses might be synthesized by bioterrorists. The researchers responded that they were merely applying current knowledge and techniques to demonstrate the principle that viruses are basically chemical entities that can be synthesized in the laboratory.

- What does a bacteriophage accomplish with lysogeny? O 1) it allows the bacteriophage to destroy the host cell's DNA. 2) it enables the bacteriophage to take over the cell. O 3) it speeds up the viral infection cycle. 4) it allows the bacteriophage to infect cells it would not normally infect. O 5) the genetic material of the bacteriophage can be passed on to future generations of infected cells.arrow_forwardThis virus does not conform to the central dogma of molecular biology.
