The virus tries to match the recognition glycoprotein on the outside of the cell it is trying to invade, for docking purposes, or for entry purposes. Generally the membrane that covers this type of virus was taken from a cell it lysed on exit.
A virus and a cell have to have matching "docking" proteins for the virus to invade. Otherwise the virus is blocked.
The proteins in the capsid allow the virus to attach to the "docking stations" proteins of the host cell.
A virus enters a cell by recognizing specific proteins or receptors on the surface of the target cell that it can bind to. These proteins or receptors are like a lock and key mechanism that allows the virus to gain entry into the cell. Once attached, the virus can then inject its genetic material into the cell to begin the infection process.
The specific viral proteins on the surface of the virus determine its attachment to host cell membrane receptors. These proteins bind to complementary host cell receptors, allowing the virus to attach and enter the host cell.
The spike proteins on the surface of the virus bind to specific receptors on the surface of human cells. For example, in the case of COVID-19, the spike protein of the virus binds to the ACE2 receptor on human cells, facilitating entry of the virus into the cell.
A virus attaches to a specific cell because it has proteins on its surface that can only bind to receptors on that specific cell. This binding is necessary for the virus to enter the cell and replicate. This specificity is determined by the structure of the virus and the receptors on the cell surface.

nope, that really isn't possible as virus are acellular organisms and in order to reproduce themselves, they need a host cell. some of those virus contain genetic information, proteins inside them and no way to duplicate it. so what they do is invade a cell that can reproduce itself, and sneak the virus genetic information into the cell's DNA. once the DNA is replicated, the virus uses its proteins to cut the portions of its material genetic and it's done. the virus is replicated
Some viruses are very specific to certain cells. The cell has proteins on it's surface and a virus will use it a docking station to be able to enter the cell. Some cells don't have that protein and the virus can not enter the cell.
