2. Are viruses alive? Why or why not?

no because they dont need to consume energy to survive and they cant replicate without a host cell

it does not follow all of the seven life processes (Movement, Respiration, Sensitivity, Nutrition, Excretion, Reproduction and Growth.) therefore it is non-living

Explanation:

hope this helpedd :)

every el niño cycle is different. every year.

small, big, or no change could occur in the phenotype. it could cause something as simple as a cats ears to curl backwards or something as frighting as death. it could also occur in the protien-coding area and have an effect on that but no effect on the amino acids. what has to occur is a changing in the hox gene or the control gene.
