Does the host cell usually benefit from having a virus?
The host cell does not benefit from having a virus. The virus usually kills it.
Why would it not be advantageous for a virus to kill its host?
virus is obligate patogen it only can reproduce by killing the host cells.
Does a virus need a crystal or a host to reproduce?
the virus needs the host to reproduce!! : )
What are some effects the quokkapox virus has on the host?
The effects that the quokkapox virus has on the host is weakening the immune system. The other effect of the quokkapox virus is that the host will get pox lesions.
What is a virus called outside a host cell?
virus can't live outside host cell
Does the host cell usually benefit from having a virus?
The host cell does not benefit from having a virus. The virus usually kills it.
Why would it not be advantageous for a virus to kill its host?
virus is obligate patogen it only can reproduce by killing the host cells.
What do you call that a virus invades?
A virus which invades a cell can be said to be virulent. One that causes the host cell to immediately produce virus' particles and lose it's ability to live is said to be a lytic virus. A virus that remains "silent" for awhile is called a lysogenic virus.
What type of virus kills batcteria?
The type of virus that kills bacteria is the bacteriophage.
What is the difference between lytice cycle and lysogenic cycle?
The lysogenic cycle incorporates its DNA into the cells DNA, lets the cell resume normal growth by reproduction, so that all the cells have viral DNA and lyse to produce more viruses than ever. The lyctic cycle merely infects and lyses one cell at a time.
In what cycle of the viral replication does the virus the host cell?
During the cycle of viral shedding, the virus has made copies of itself and the host cell is no longer useful. The host cell then dies, and the new virus cells then must find a new host.
What affect will a virus in the lytic cycle have on an organism?
It kills the host bacteria. I don't believe it occurs in eukaryotic cells.
Can a virus have a host?
Viruses do not cause diseases in the host. Why? Well, the host is already causing the virus so it is IMPOSSIBLE for another virus to be cause in the host.
What is the first event that occurred when a virus infects the host cell?
The virus attaches to the host cells membrane.
What is the legacy virus from x-men?
The Legacy Virus is a virus that kills mutants.
Does a virus need a crystal or a host to reproduce?
the virus needs the host to reproduce!! : )
What is a process that a virus can do in a host?
First the virus enters the host cell, then the virus' hereditary material come, then the host cells hereditary material becomes viral, then the host cell expands, and then it POPS!!!
