What is the nucleic acid core in a virus called?
the "core" of a virus is the nucleic acid (either DNA or RNA) that makes up the viral genome. this core contains all the genetic information of that virus, and is enclosed within the protein coat known as the capsid.
What is a biological particle composed of a nucleic acid core and a protein cover called?
If it consists only of these two components it is a virus.
What is the Nucleic acid core definition?
a core is The part of a nuclear reactor where binary fission occurs.Some viruses contain DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid)and other viruses contain RNA (ribonucleic acid). Either of these molecules is responsible for the primary qualities of life that viruses display while inside host cells. The nucleic acids are genetic instructions for viral activity and reproduction.
What part of the HIV virus serves to protect the nucleic acid core?
viral load
What is a caspid'?
The protein coat or shell of a virus particle, surrounding the nucleic acid or nucleoprotein core
What a biological particle composed of a nucleic acid core and a protein cover is called a?
Virus (singular-virion)
What is the function of the nucleic acid within a virus?
The nucleic acids (RNA and DNA) are enclosed in a protein coat called a capsid. Viruses are divided into two groups for classification: those with RNA and those with DNA. Viruses do not duplicate themselves outside of a cell. They are able to replicate only within cells. The DNA or RNA is able to direct the cells to make more viruses.
How is the viral nucleic acid core different from the nucleicid of the bacterial host?
The viral nucleic acid core is composed of the genetic material specific to the virus and is often surrounded by a protein coat. In contrast, the nucleic acid of the bacterial host is the genetic material of the host bacterium and is usually localized within the bacterial cell. Additionally, bacterial nucleic acid is typically organized within a nucleoid region in the bacterial cytoplasm.
Viruses contains what?
Viruses contain an inner nucleic acid core (genetic material) and an outer protein coat (capsid).
What are the 2 main components of a virus?
All viruses have 2 basic parts: a protein coat that protects the virus and an inner core made of genetic material.
If you opened a virus what would you?
You would find nucleic acids and core proteins
The genetic material of a virus is found in its .?
The genetic material of a virus is found in the capsid.
