Answer from: himydomanasis

The correct answer is: Nuclease (DNAse or RNAse).

Explanation:

Virus particles are majorly made up of two components:Capsid: It can be defined as a glyco-protein rich coat that encloses the viral particles.Genetic material: It can be DNA (Deoxyribonucleic Acid) or RNA (Ribonucleic Acid). It can be either in the form of single strand or in the form of double strand.The genetic material is the infectious component of the viruses. This is because if the viral genetic material gets access into the host cell, it can hijack the host cell machinery to produce new viral particles thereby causing infection in the host.Therefore, in order to destroy viral particles it is necessary to destroy its genetic material, that is, DNA or RNA.Nuclease is the enzyme which is capable of hydrolysing and hence degrading the nucleic acids.The nuclease specific for DNA is called DNase.The nuclease specific for RNA is called RNase.Depending upon the type of virus, DNA virus (having DNA as the genetic material) or RNA virus (having RNA as the genetic material), either DNAse or RNAse needs to be used for destroying the virus.

1. vishnu schist

2. zoroaster granite

3. bass limestone

4. hakatar shale

5. igneous intrusion

6. shinumo quartzite

7. dox sandstone

8. tapeats limestone

9. bright angel shale

10. muav limestone

11. temple butte limestone

12. redwall limestone

nonconformity

answer: the unkar group shows angular unconformity because the layers are turned at angle.

unconformity

answer: specifically the angular unconformity occurs between the cambrian and precambrian rocks. the dox sandstone, shinumo quartzite, hakatar shale, and bass limestone have been filled. an angular unconformity occurs between the cambrian and precambrian rocks. the dox sandstone, shinumo quartzite, hakatar shale, and bass limestone have been filled.

disconformity

answer: the disconformities aremarked irregular lines between the sedimentaryrocks layers.
