Best Answer

Viruses replicate by hijacking a host's cells. The virus inserts its own RNA sequence into the host cell's nucleus, forcing it to replicate the virus until the host cell dies.

Can a smaller virus affect a bigger virus?

No because a virus is simply genetic material coated in a protein shell. Internally, viruses do not have the components, which are commonly found in cells, necessary to propagate "offspring."

Definition of propagate?

Propagate means to breed.


What are the warning symptoms ofAnna kournikova virus?

This a computer virus and there are no actual symptoms. The Anna Kournikova virus is a self-replicate virus which means that when the system is infected with this virus the system will spread the infection to other systems which will propagate the virus further and so on. Users get this virus through an e-mail attachment. Upon opening this attachment the system gets infected and the virus mail itself to all users found in the windows Address Book. Once the system is infected by this virus, the virus copies itself to the Windows directory as "AnnaKournikova.jpg.vbs". You will find it here : C:WINDOWSAnnaKournikova.jpg.vbs


How does mRNA lead to new viral particles?

mRNA is a "message" that is transcribed into proteins. The proteins form the capsid and other proteins the virus needs. The virus also needs genetic material so it can propagate in other cells. If a virus is a + strand ssRNA (coding strand, analagous to mRNA) just that RNA could lead to a viral infection.

What software does not require a user to assist in its propogation?

Standalone software that does not require a user to assist in its propagation is often called a computer virus or just a virus.However, in order for a virus to propagate (transmit a copy of itself) to another computer, there must be something on the second computer that allows the virus to be accepted and to run/execute. It could be a person not aware of the virus that allows it to be accepted. It also could be software on the destination computer that, by design or as a result of faulty programming, intentionally or unintentionally allows the virus program to enter the computer and become active.


What is the speed of gravitiy?

Gravitational waves propagate at the speed of light. Any change in the distribution of masses will propagate at that speed.


What do light waves propagate through?

Light waves propagate best through vacuum, or "nothing." Light waves also propagate at slower speeds through denser materials, such as air, glass, and clear water.


Where does sound not propagate?

sound needs a material medium to travel. Sound can travel by compression and rarefactions.attma
