What attaches to bacteria and injects their hereditary material?

virus


What attaches to the bacteria and injects the hereditary material?

A bacteriophage. A virus that lands on the bacteria and injects the genetic material. Often, T even phages. ( T-2 and T-4 phages )


When phage attaches to a bacteria the phage injects what?

DNA single


A bacteriophage typically attaches to the bacterium and then?

It's genetic material and some enzymes sometimes which hijack the bacteria into making more viruses.


How does a latent virus reproduce?

1)A SPECIFIC virus attaches to the surface of a specific bacteria cell.hereditary material of the virus injects into the cell. 2)The viral hereditary material may become a part of the bacterial cell's chromosome. 3)The bacterial cell divides the virus is now part of two cells inseted of one 4)The virus become active. 5)New virus are made 6)The bacterial cell breaks open and releases the viruses, thereby destroying the host bacterial cell.


What viruses are caused by bacteria?

it depends on the type of DNA the virus injects into the bacteria


What is the pathogen attacks specific cells and injects genetic materials?

Viruses attach specific cells and inject genetic material. There are viruses called bacteriophages that infect bacteria be injecting their genetic material into the bacterial host and invading their protein machinery. With animal viruses that infect animal cells (much larger than bacteria), the virus either injects genetic material OR gets into the cell whole before it begins to unleash its pathogenic effects


How does a virus sustain life in its host?

First things first a virus is not living. The virus injects its Genetic material (G.M. for short) and and makes the bacteria make more viruses.


What does a virus do in the copy phase?

A Virus injects his DNA or RNA in the cel or bacteria. The leftover of the virus dies.


How is the prolotherapy treatment carried out?

In prolotherapy, a doctor injects a sugar water or salt water-based solution into the damaged ligament or tendon at the point where it attaches to the bone.


What method of entry does the virus use in step 2 of the lytic cycle?

Injection. After the virus has attached to the cell wall, it then injects its genetic material into the cell.


How do hidden viruses multiply?

1. A virus attaches to a bacterium. 2. The virus injects its genetic material. 3. The genetic material of the virus combines with the bacterium's genetic material. 4. The virus's genetic material detaches from the bacterium's genetic material and the bacterium produces the virus's proteins and genetic material. 5. New viruses assemble. 6. The bacterium bursts open, releasing new viruses.
