Do viruses produce proteins?
Viruses hijack the cell and use the cell's machinery to produce proteins.
How do viruses affect cells and bacteria?
viruses latch onto a host cell and injects its own DNA into it, this DNA controls the cell and makes it produce more viruses inside the cell, when these are ready the burst out of the host cell killing it, and land on another cell
How a virus inters your body and 'how it reproduces in your body'?
Viruses are like parasites. They always need host to reproduce and everything. First, they enter through any kind of opening in body, like wound, or mouth. Then the viruses send in their DNA's into uninfected cells using a protein fork. Then the cell is infected, and is forced to produce more viruses. When there are no more resources to produce more viruses in the cell, viruses burst out and the cell dies. This repeats until the infected organism dies.
How are viruses spread cell to cell?
New viruses are released after the lytic cycle. ~Gradpoint/Novanet
What are the six traits of viruses?
Viruses have six traits that characterize them. They are: They can produce at a high rate, they can mutate, they are acellular, they have no metabolism, they either have DNA or RNA, and they are dependent on a host cell for replication.
Does virus makes the cell it is in produce more viruses?
Yes, viruses use the cell that it has invaded to produce more viruses.
Do viruses produce proteins?
Viruses hijack the cell and use the cell's machinery to produce proteins.
A virus makes the cell it is in produce more viruses?
Of course it makes your cell it is produce more viruses only in a severe virus.
Why viruses are refered to as obligate parasites?
Because viruses can not reproduce or produce protein without a host cell
Can a virus make the cell it is in produce more viruses?
yes it does

What do viruses need to carry on?
Viruses need a host cell to be able to multiply. Once they get attached to the cell membrane or cell wall of a living cell, they can take it over and "make" the living cell produce virus particles instead of cell parts. These particles can assemble into more viruses and then they break out of the cell (killing it) and begin the process again. They cannot make more viruses on their own.
What do viruses have to rely on for replication?
They rely on their host. They can not reproduce on their own, so they are not considered living. They inject genetic information into a host cell and make the cell produce more viruses.

How are viruses spread from cell to cell?
New viruses are released after the lytic cycle. ~Gradpoint/Novanet
Do Viruses multiply through binary fission?
No, they do not. They are hijackers. Once they get attached to the cell of a living cell, they can take it over and "make" the living cell produce virus particles instead of cell parts. These particles can assemble into more viruses and then they break out of the cell (killing it) and begin the process again.No, only living cells divide by binary fission. Viruses are not alive.
Is there a cell membrane in viruses?
Viruses dont have a cell membrane. Instead, they have a protein sheath.
