What component of a virus is injected into the infected cell?
The components of a virus that is injected into the infected cell is either the RNA or DNA. A virus is composed of two parts a nucleic acid part and a protein part.
What component of a virus is injected into infected cell?
the nucleic acid
How does interferon help virus infected cell?
Interferons are messenger molecules secreted by virus-infected cells to notify cells in the vicinity of a viral invasion.
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 neuramidase?
It is a protein on the influenza virus that is thought to help the virus escape from the cell after it replicates. Zanamivir and oseltamivir are drugs that inhibit this action and thus trap virus particles within an infected cell.
Why are lysosomes referred to as suicide bags?
they have a very low pH in relation to the cell. So if the cell is infected an antibody can "pop" the lysosomes to kill the virus in the cell but it also kills the host cell.
What component of a virus is injected into the infected cell?
The components of a virus that is injected into the infected cell is either the RNA or DNA. A virus is composed of two parts a nucleic acid part and a protein part.
Does a virus use ATP?
no, that is supplied by the infected cell.
What component of a virus is injected into infected cell?
the nucleic acid
Do virus replicate?
It can reproduce if it infected a host cell!
How does interferon help virus infected cell?
Interferons are messenger molecules secreted by virus-infected cells to notify cells in the vicinity of a viral invasion.
What stimulates the production of interferions?
When a cell is infected with a virus, the cell secrets interferon to help the other cells to resist to this virus. Hope it helps!!

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.
What are infected cells called?
Infected cells are typically referred to as host cells that have been invaded by a virus, bacteria, or other microorganism.
What is the best predictor of how much damage a virus causes?
ability of the infected cell to undergo normal cell division
What is neuramidase?
It is a protein on the influenza virus that is thought to help the virus escape from the cell after it replicates. Zanamivir and oseltamivir are drugs that inhibit this action and thus trap virus particles within an infected cell.
