All my life, i had been afraid of a book. an important book, in the bible. it's called revelation. often times i've avoided it because i felt that it was scary and i couldn't understand, i thought wow, this basically tells the scary part of the future, but today i realized that it's about what's happening now, right now. in the beginning of the book, it talks about the churches, how some churches have false teachers, or some need to repent, and i realized that this book portrays to the churches nowadays also. i know jesus is coming one day, and i know that he is light, he will prevail over the darkness and he can show you the way. all you have to do is trust and believe in him, and he will guide you the right way. i love god with all my heart, and i believe that whoever is reading this you should too! i'm sorry that i put this on it's not a question, and it's only a matter of minutes before this gets reported but, i wanted people to know, revelation isn't scary, in fact it's amazing! you for your time. i hope you accept jesus christ into your life!

The herpes viruses are important enveloped dna viruses that cause disease in vertebrates and in some invertebrates such as oysters. some of the human forms are herpes simplex virus (hsv) types i and ii, causing facial and genital lesions, and the varicella zoster virus (vsv), causing chicken pox and shingles. each of these three actively infects nervous tissue. primary infections are fairly mild, but the virus is not then cleared from the host; rather, viral genomes are maintained in cells in a latent phase. the virus can later reactivate, replicate again, and infect others. in electron micrographs of hsv infection, it can be seen that the intact virus initially reacts with cell surface proteoglycans, then with specific receptors. this is later followed by viral capsids docking with nuclear pores. afterward, the capsids go from being full to being "empty." which of the following best fits these observations? a) viral capsids are needed for the cell to become infected; only the capsids enter the nucleus. b) the viral envelope is not required for infectivity, since the envelope does not enter the nucleus. c) only the genetic material of the virus is involved in the cell's infectivity, and is injected like the genome of a phage. d) the viral envelope mediates entry into the cell, the capsid mediates entry into the nuclear membrane, and the genome is all that enters the nucleus.
