Genetics
Expression of a gene
phenotype
A clone
a population of cells derived from a single cell that is genetically identical
Halophiles live in
extreme salty(hypertonic/osmotic pressure) environments
Cutaneous mycosis
a fungal infection of the epidermis, hair, or nails
Virions are
complete, fully developed viral particles composed of nucleic acid surrounded by a coat

The Host range of a virus
the spectrum of host cells that a virus can infect. Due to the requirements for attachment and availability within host cellular factors required for replication
