  1. Attachment: The virus attaches to the surface of the host cell.
  2. Entry: The virus enters the cell, either by direct fusion with the host cell membrane or by endocytosis.
  3. Replication: The virus releases its genetic material and hijacks the cellular machinery to replicate itself.
  4. Assembly and Release: New virus particles are assembled and released from the cell to infect other cells.

The life cycle of a typical DNA virus consists of 4 steps?

The typical life cycle of a DNA virus involves attachment to the host cell, entry into the cell, replication of viral DNA and production of new virus particles, and finally release of these new viruses to infect other cells.


What are the six steps of a virus?

Attachment: Virus attaches to host cell. Penetration: Virus injects its genetic material into host cell. Replication: Virus genetic material replicates inside host cell. Assembly: New viral particles are assembled. Release: Newly formed viruses are released from host cell. Infection: Newly released viruses can infect other cells.


The cell infected by a virus is referred to as the?

The cell infected by a virus is referred to as the host cell. The virus hijacks the host cell's machinery to replicate and produce more virus particles.


Why is the cell invaded by the virus called a host cell?

The cell invaded by the virus is called a host cell because it provides the environment and resources necessary for the virus to replicate and multiply. The virus uses the host cell's machinery to produce more viruses, ultimately leading to the destruction of the host cell.


What do you call a cell that has been infected with a virus?

It is called a host cell. The virus attaches to the cell and injects its DNA into the cell. The virus's DNA overruns the "instructions" that the cell has and "tells" the cell to make copies of the virus using the DNA. Then the cell makes so many copies of the virus, that it explodes. The new viruses then go on to attach to other cells.

What is active disease?

An "active virus" is when a virus enters a cell and is active, it causes the host cell to make new viruses. This process destroys the host cell. The steps are first, the virus attach's to a host cell. Second, the virus's hereditary material enters the host cell. Third, the virus's hereditary material causes the cell to make viral hereditary material and proteins. Fourth, new viruses from inside the host cell. Fifth, new viruses are released as the host cell bursts open and is destroyed. There are five steps on how a active virus functions inside a cell.


What are the four steps an active virus takes to reproduce itself in a bacterial cell?

Attachment: The virus attaches to the surface of the bacterial cell. Entry: The virus injects its genetic material into the bacterial cell. Replication: The viral genetic material replicates using the host's cellular machinery. Release: The newly formed virus particles are released from the bacterial cell to infect other cells.

Where can I get a Drawing of a virus cell?

No where. A virus is not a cell.


What three steps occur after a virus attaches and enters a host cell?

When a virus enters a cell and is active, it causes the host cell to make new viruses, this process destroys active virus functions inside a cell.....it like 'tricks' the host cell that it's one of the cells


How are the steps in the infection of an animal cell by a virus different from the infection of a bacterial cell by a virus?

Infection of an animal cell by a virus typically involves the virus attaching to specific receptors on the cell surface, entering the cell through endocytosis or direct fusion, replicating using host cell machinery, and then releasing new viruses by budding or cell lysis. In contrast, infection of a bacterial cell by a virus (called a bacteriophage) usually involves the phage injecting its genetic material into the bacterium, hijacking the bacterial machinery to replicate, and then causing lysis of the bacterial cell to release new phages.


Which virus enters a cell and the virus's genetic material becomes part of the cell?

This is something all viruses do in effect when they attack a cell and make the cell start producing new viruses as a part of their reproductive process. See the related question below about the Lytic Cycle which describes the steps in that process.


What does a cell and virus have in common?

What a cell and a virus have in common is the RNA or DNA. The virus can be either a RNA virus or a DNA virus.


The cell infected by a virus is referred to as the?

What are steps of the lytic cycle of viral reproduction?

The four steps of a virus are simple... 1.Attach (a virus cell hooks on a good cell) 2.Invade (the virus gets to the point of putting its own D.N.A into the cell) 3.Copy ( it makes copies of itself) 4.release (the new viruses break out of the cell) then the prosses repeats and more and more viruses from....
