Do viral genes redirect the genetic and metabolic activities of a host cell?
Yes viral genes redirect the genetic and metabolic activities of a host cell. This happens when a virus enters a host cell.
What happens when excess water enters the plant cell?
If excess water moves into an animal cell, it will eventually burst. This happens if the cell is placed in a hypotonic solution (a solution with a lower solute concentration than the cell).
What enters a cell and becomes part of cell's hereditary material without destroying the cell or replicating itself?
Latent Virus
Describe what happens to the host cell of a lysogenic virus?
In the lysogenic cycle, the viral DNA or RNA enters the cell and integrates into the host DNA as a new set of genes called prophage. That is, the viral DNA becomes part of the cell's genetic material. It does not destroy the host cell.
Which part of the plant cell controls what goes in and out of the cell?
The Cell surface membrane controls what enters and leaves the cell
What is the first thing that happens when an animal virus enters a cell and starts to reproduce?
it reproduces
What stage is it when a virus enters a host cell?
The virus enters the host cell in the penetration phase.
Why is a virus not concidered to be alive till it enters a living plant or animal?
viruses cannot be considered alive until it enters the host cell because it cannot metabolises its organic nutrient but the ATP made by the host cell.
Why virus does not success to duplicate into the cell?
Once the virus enters the cell, unless it is deformed in some way, it will have success.
What portion of the virus actually enters a cell is the?
RNA or DNA depending on the type of virus.
What part of a plant cell the cell wall or the cell membrane what enters or leave the cell?
The cell membrane controls what enters or leaves the cell.
Do viral genes redirect the genetic and metabolic activities of a host cell?
Yes viral genes redirect the genetic and metabolic activities of a host cell. This happens when a virus enters a host cell.
What virus enters a cell and becomes part of the cells DNA without destroying the cell or replicating itself?
A Latent Virus
When a virus enters a cell it?
Hijacks the cellular machinery and enters a lytic or lysogenic lifecycle.
What happens when excess water enters the plant cell?
If excess water moves into an animal cell, it will eventually burst. This happens if the cell is placed in a hypotonic solution (a solution with a lower solute concentration than the cell).
How do viruses get into bacterial cell?
A virus has proteins on its capsid that bind to living host cell. Once the virus has attached it enters the cell or inserts DNA/RNA into the cell.
What is the portion of the virus that actually enters the host cell?
its genetic material
