Biology Test 2
Virus that can integrate its genetic material with the host cell DNA called as
  • Leonurus mosaic virus
Explanation:

Lentiviruses are a subgroup of retroviruses capable of integrating their genetic material into the DNA of the host cell.

This characteristic allows them to persist within the host for a long time, contributing to chronic infections. 

Hypo secretion of growth hormone in children leads to
  • Hypothalamus
  • Dwarfism
  • Gigantism
Explanation:

Hyposecretion of growth hormone during childhood can lead to stunted growth and is a common cause of dwarfism.

Intermediate lobe produces a hormone
  • Melanocyte stimulating Hormone
  • corticotrophic stimulating Hormone
  • Adrenocorticotrophic stimulating Hormone
Explanation:

The intermediate lobe of the pituitary gland produces MSH, which is involved in the regulation of skin pigmentation.

Treatment for HIV patients is called as
  • Retroviral therapy
  • Antiretroviral therapy
  • HIV therapy
Explanation:

This treatment helps manage HIV infection by reducing the viral load in the body and improving the immune system's function.

Proteins are the combination of
  • 23 Amino acids
  • 21 Amino acids
  • 22 Amino acids
Explanation:

These amino acids combine in various sequences to form different proteins, which play crucial roles in the body.

Majority of Proteins in the body function as
  • Amino Acids
  • Enzymes
  • Peptides
Explanation:

Enzymes are proteins that catalyze biochemical reactions in the body, playing a crucial role in metabolism and various physiological processes.

Lack of carbohydrates leads to
  • Marasmus
  • hypocalcemia
  • kwashiorkor
    • Explanation:

    Marasmus is a form of severe malnutrition characterized by a significant deficiency in caloric intake, including carbohydrates, proteins, and fats.
