A)Protease
B)Urease
C)Lysozyme
D)Succinic dehydrogenase
7. Virus
contain the following
I. Genome II. Capsid III. Capsule IV. Enzyme
A) I, II and III are correct
B)I, II, III, and IV are correct
C)I, II
and IV are correct
D)II, III, and IV are correct
8. The
common viral disease of Papaya
A)Leaf roll
B)Big Bud
C)Leaf mosaic
D)Leaf
curl
9. Viruses
that persist in the cell and cause recurrent disease are called
A)Oncogenic viruses
B)Latent
viruses
C)Cytopathic viruses
D)Resistant viruses
10. Why the lysogenic cycle is more beneficial to a virus than lytic cycle
under certain circumstances?
A)The
lysogenic cycle prevents local extinction of the host while still retaining its
infection potential
B)By integrating with the bacterial chromosomes, the genetic
instructions for the virus become refreshed after one or more replication
events during binary fission
C)Lysogenic infection cycles do not harm their host cells, so they
can produce virus particles indefinitely
D)Lysogeny cause more mutations to occur in the virus, creating more
variants upon which natural selection can operate
