3) It is now 2085 and the world is experiencing another pandemic viral infection. The scientist that discovers the virus, purifies out the genetic information and learns that it has a sequence that is: 26% Cytosine 21% Adenine 28% Uracil and 25% Guanine What sort of genetic information does this new virus have?

Which of the following describes why soap is effective at killing animal virus particles Soap Disrupts DNA replication Soap Disrupts RNA replication Soap Disrupts the envelope of the virus Soap Denatures proteins
Humans often use many proteins to accomplish a single function while many viruses accomplish multiple functions with a single peptide. What is an example of a virus and its single viral protein that accomplishes multiple functions? Why is it that this virus must be so efficient (doing so much with only one protein)? Why is this not the case with humans and pathogens that are relatives of humans?
A two mL stock of Marburg virus (Filamentous, non-segmented, negative strand RNA virusin Filoviridae family) contains 5.6 x 1017 virions (individual viruses)/mL. The sample mustbe diluted serially to the point in which 2.4 x 106 virions exist in every 100 µL of sample foran infection experiment which requires at least 7.2 mL (you will NEED more than 6 mL).Using dilutions of no greater than 1/1000 in volumes no greater than 10 mL and includingone dilution of 1/8.8 show below how you would set up this dilution series. Remember smallvolumes carry inherently larger error.
