6. What is the function of hemagglutinin in the influenza virus? (A) Hemagglutinin is the name of the reverse transcriptase enzyme in the influenza virus.

(C) Hemagglutinin is part of the protein capsid of the influenza virus. (D) Hemagglutinin helps release new viruses from infected cells. (E) Hemagglutinin is the protein that helps the influenza virus attach to host cells.

7. In an experiment, a microbiologist put equal numbers of each of the following organisms into a flask of sterile broth, consisting mostly of sugar and a few amino acids.
