What happens when RNA is extracted from a virus is injected into a host cell?
Without the viral enzyme reverse transcriptase probable nothing. RNA viruses are retroviruses because they nee reverse tanscriptase to make a DNA copy from the RNA that is inserted into the cell. Generally to form a provirus. Now if you injected DNA from a regular virus then it would be as if the virus did it itself.
Is a virus prokaryote or eukaryote?
Virus is neither prokaryotic nor eukaryotic. Viruses are not alive to begin with and therefore are not classified into a category
How does a anaerobic virus which will die in the presence of oxygen begin the transformation to become an aerobic virus?
Viruses are neither aerobic nor anaerobic.
What are the six stages of Bacteriophage attacking the cell?
1. Adsorption- when the virus attaches to the cell 2. Entry- when the virus's DNA is injected into the cell's 3. Replication- when the cell makes lots of new parts for new viruses 4. Assembly when the "virus pieces form new viruses 5. Lyse- when the cell explodes and the new viruses are released.
What kills viruses in humans?
A vaccine is injected into the human body containing the antigens of the virus. The body's immune system produces antibodies from B-cells to destroy the virus and remembers the virus if it ever enters the body again.
Can you Explain the live virus in vaccines?
Vaccines are small amounts of live viruses injected into the body. These viruses teach the body's immune system how to fight off the disease. Correction: Some viruses are live. Some are weakened, most flu vaccines are dead viruses, not live, although the nasal mist is a live, weakened virus. Please make sure your answers are correct.
What is produced by cells infected with viruses?
More viruses. Cells infected with virus DNA are essentially converted into virus factories. Instead of producing the materials the cell needs to reproduce, it produces dormant viruses, until the cell bursts and the new viruses begin infecting other cells.
How did HPV begin?
Human Papilloma virus has been around for longer than we have known about viruses. No one knows where it originated.
What is the term for the genetic material inside a virus?
The term for .the genetic material inside of a virus is Hereditary. Hereditary is a gene passed from a parent. If you are learning about viruses then you may know that they reprodue by using a living cell. They attack it, inject their DNA/RNA and let the cell do the rest. Viruses are concidered 50% living and 50% non living. Im a person that belives that they are not living. You should know that when a virus has injected the DNA/RNA its still alive and it leaves the cell. once it leaves the cell begins to produce thousands of little viruses. They then begin the prosses all over again.
What viruses break into cells to reproduce?
All viruses do that. That's what makes a virus a virus.
IF a person is injected with HIV would they have it?
If injected with the virus HIV, they would be infected.
What kind of virus attacks only viruses?
Viruses do not attack viruses.
