    The epidermis is the thickest and innermost layer of the skin.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    The given statement is false. The epidermis is actually the thinnest and outermost layer of the skin, not the thickest and innermost layer. The epidermis is responsible for protecting the body from external factors and regulating water loss. It is composed of several layers of cells, including the outermost layer called the stratum corneum. The thickest layer of the skin is the dermis, which lies beneath the epidermis and contains various structures such as blood vessels, hair follicles, and sweat glands.

    Viruses can not replicate without the help of a host cell

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Viruses are infectious agents that cannot replicate or reproduce on their own. They lack the necessary cellular machinery and metabolic processes required for replication. Instead, they rely on host cells to provide the necessary resources and machinery for their replication. Once inside a host cell, viruses hijack the cellular machinery to produce more copies of themselves. This process eventually leads to the destruction of the host cell and the release of new virus particles, which can go on to infect other cells. Therefore, the statement that viruses cannot replicate without the help of a host cell is true.
