There are numerous types of viruses and it is the specific category that determines what is actually found in the inner core, but it will always be some type of genetic code. This genetic code could either be in the form of RNA or in the form of DNA, and in the case of DNA, it can come in either a single stranded or double stranded variety. It is this difference in genetic material that determines how the virus invades a cell and how it will reproduce. Regardless of this core, all viruses will additionally have a protein coat that stores this genetic material and provides some amount of protection. In addition, some (but not all) viruses have an additional protective layer of fat called a viral envelope to help them survive outside a host cell.

These particles can assemble into more viruses and then they break out of the cell (killing it) and begin the process again. They cannot make more viruses on their own.

What is responsible for bone structure?
An organic molecule is a molecule which contains the element carbon. An inorganic molecule is the opposite. Almost all of the molecules that are inside the human body would be classified as organic molecules.
Why did the development of vascular system helps plants move to land?
It made it possible to move water within the plant structure.
What structure of a plant produces the fruit?
The structure the fruit is made from is the blossom
What structure is made of cellulose?
cell wall
What is a temporary structure made on the outside of a building?
The outside of a temporary building structure is typically made of steel. Have a look at the website in the related links for more information.
What is the innermost layer of earth made of?
The inner core is the innermost layer of the earth.
What constitutes the innermost layer of the earth?
It is believed that the innermost layer of the earth, the inner core, is made mostly of iron and nickel.
The innermost layer?
Inner core....made of iron
Why is not the mitochondrian classified as a part of endomembrane system?
Its structure is not derived from the ER In contrast to organelles of the endomembrane system, these organelles have at least two membranes separating the innermost space from the cytosol. Their membrane proteins aren't made by the endoplasmic reticulum, but by ribosomes in the cytoplasm and in the organelle itself.
Is the center of the Earth made of hot molten material?
The innermost layer, the inner core, is very hot but not molten.
Define rock structure?
A rock structure is made out of any type of rock. A rock structure can be man made but is usually naturally made, caused by weather or erosion.
What is responsible for bone structure?
An organic molecule is a molecule which contains the element carbon. An inorganic molecule is the opposite. Almost all of the molecules that are inside the human body would be classified as organic molecules.
Is a bridge man made or engineering structure?
BOTH it is not natural, and made by humans. - man made it is an engineering structure as well!
The portion of the sternum that is made of cartilage in children?
foramina
What have you made if you use balls to explain the structure of a molecule?
If you use balls to explain the structure of a molecule you have made a model.
What are the three innermost layers of Earth?
Innermost- Solid nickel iron core; Surrounded by a liquid core that also might be nickel iron; Liquid mantel made of all sorts of stuff; Upper mantel called Moho, which is like plastic...thick toffee; Outermost-Thin crust
What is a structure made of?
structures are made of many things
