What do you think? Of course not right? Viruses do not even have cells, which are regarded as the basic unit of life. Thus, without cells, how will they have cell walls? You would definitely have known the answer with a little research and inference. Stop being lazy.

What structure is most similar to the protein shell in a virus?
a cell wall
Are viruses called cells?
NO A cell has a cell wall that is active in water/nutrient/waste transportation. A virus has a protein jacket that's sole function is to protect the internal DNA/RNA.
What is a outer supportive structure of a plant cell?
The cell wall supports and protects the plant cell.
How is the cell of a one celled organism different from the cells in many celled organism?
There is no particular trend. For example a many-cells organism like humans have different cells than plants. (Cell walll, vacuole wise) While both differ from one-celled organisms like fungi, virus, and bacteria. Moreover, all the three are different. Fungi have a cell wall made of chitin while bacteria have a cell wall made of murein and a virus doesn't even gave a cell wall.
What part of the cell is strong and stiff and hard to get through and only found in plants?
The cell wall.But it is not only found in plants, both bacteria and fungi have cell walls too.
What is the function of the cell wall in the cell wall?
it protects the cell wall from any bacteria virus, and other enffections
Do virus has a cell wall?
noo
What is the function of a cell wall in a cell?
it protects the cell wall from any bacteria virus, and other enffections
What is a particle with dna but no nucleus or cell wall?
A virus is a particle with DNA but no nucleus or cell wall.
Does yellow fever have a cell wall?
The yellow fever virus is released through a cell wall. Generally viruses do not have a cell wall. However, they attach to cell walls.
What structure is most similar to the protein shell in a virus?
a cell wall
How does cellulose help with one functions of the cell wall?
The cellulose makes the cell wall harder to protect it from bacterias and other harmful virus.
What method of entry does the virus use in step 2 of the lytic cycle?
Injection. After the virus has attached to the cell wall, it then injects its genetic material into the cell.
Do virus have a cell wall?
Answer... NO According to the KAPLAN's explanation of AAMC MCAT practice test CBT 4, viruses can have cell walls (question B). Either they are wrong, or the rigid coating of a virus is called a cell wall though the virus itself is not considered a "cell." I will look for another source on this, but the common sense answer may not be correct here... I suppose this is just a grievous error on the AAMC MCAT. Viruses do have a protein coat similar to a cell wall, but obviously it is not called a cell wall.
How do cells get diseases?
When a virus breaks through a cell wall/ membrane and infects the cytoplasm.
What does the virus reproduction do to the host bacterium?
a virus uses leg-like appendages to clamp onto a cell and a spike or chemical coating to penetrate the cell wall http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-the-difference-between-a-virus-and-a-bacteria.htm
What is the tail fiber in a virus?
It's a T4 long fiber and it attaches to the cell wall of the host
