What classifications of viruses can change its own code to avoid detection?
Polymorphic
Which of the following classifications of viruses can change its own code to avoid detection?
it is called polymorphic virus
Should viruses be excluded from the 5 kingdom classification system?
Yes, viruses are not considered living organisms because they lack the ability to carry out essential life processes on their own, such as metabolism and reproduction. Therefore, they are typically not included in traditional classification systems like the five-kingdom system.
Which virus can change its own code?
polymorphic
What kingdom do viruses and bacteria belong to?
Viruses are prokaryotes and not Eukaryotes. Therefore they are not alive. Since it is not considered to be alive they do not belong in the 5 kingdom classification; Monera, Fungi, Plantae, Animalia, Protista. Bacteria are living once celled organisms and belong to either bacteria or Archaea. *Viruses not considered alive because they need a host to be able to reproduce. They cannot reproduce on their own.
What are the viruses called?
They all have their own names, but as a group they are just viruses.
Why are viruses placed in separate group under classification?
Viruses are placed in a separate group because they are not considered living organisms. They lack the ability to carry out metabolism or reproduce on their own, and they must infect host cells in order to replicate. This distinguishes them from other organisms classified in the biological system.
Does viruses have their own kingdom?
yes
What is the difference between bacteria and viruses that shows the bacteria are living organisms and viruses are not?
Bacteria are able to reproduce on their own while viruses need a host to "hijack" so they can reproduce. Bacteria have metabolisms, catabolic and anabolic biochemical reactions going on in their cells all the time. Viruses do not. Bacteria can grow in size to a certain extent while viruses do not change in this regard. The definition of living things classify bacteria as a living thing, while viruses are not.
