61) What is happening in this picture? Copyright Juhn Wiley & Sons, a) HIV reverse transcriptase makes a cDNA copy of its genetic information from the viral RNA. b) The virus attaches to the CD4 receptor of the cell. c) The attached viral particle injects both viral RNA and reverse transcriptase into the host cell. d) The host cell begins to manufacture more viral particles.
letter a) please 11. Describe how HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is replicated within a white blood cell. Be sure to give details on a) the type of viral genome, b) the crucial enzyme that is associated with HIV, and e) the ability of the viral genome to remain permanently within the cell. 6 pts Class 6 - acts as a template for ONA b) Reverse transcriptase c) Provirus - permanently integrated in the host cell

1. In retroviral replication (such as HIV) reverse transcriptase is used to convert viral ds RNA into viral ds DNA viral ss RNA viral mRNA viral ss DNA 2. Many viruses undergo an uncoating process prior to replication. Which statement depicts the uncoating process? the virus destroys the host nuclear membrane allowing it access to DNA the virus sheds its protein coat the virus shed its envelope when entering the cell via the cell membrane the virus sheds its...

5. Describe the molecular mechanism that determines lysogeny or lysis of the host cell. What genes/proteins are involved? What determines if the cell exits lysogeny and enters the lytic cycle? Distinguish between early-immediate, early, and late gene transcription. What processes are occurring in these stages of transcription?
