Which of the following are NOT ways that viral vectors are modified to be made safer? a. deleting virulence genes
b. avoiding genome insertion next to oncogenes

eliminating virulence genes would be the correct answer

Explanation:

The correct answer was that since if the relationship between viruses and oncogenes is modified, the release of the oncoprotein is avoided, as well as the presence of malignant neoplasms before viral infections such as: epstein barr virus and kaposi's sarcoma.

So my answer is that the virulence factors of a virus cannot be modified to make viral vectors safer, the viral vector would be human and this is safer if its protoncogenes do not become oncogenes due to viral infections.

hey, i believe your answer would be d. sugar ribose and the base uracil. i believe this is the answer, because rna consists of sugar ribose, adenine, guanine, cytosine, and uracil.

your first option is incorrect, because that's dna. where it consists of sugar deoxyribose, adenine, guanine, cytosine and thymine.

your second option is also incorrect, this is because sugar deoxyribose is in dna, and uracil is in rna. these two do not make sense together.

your third option being incorrect, because sugar ribose is in rna, but not the base of thymine. rna consists of uracil, not thymine.

lastly your fourth option being correct! this answer is correct, because both sugar ribose, and the base uracil are in rna! ~

answer is d. sugar ribose and the base uracil.
