How do you describe an active virus?

The virus attaches to the host cell, it takes over the functions of the host cell, and it eventually destroys it. If there was no host cell, the virus would die.


What is caused by the multiplication of a small infectious agent which invades a host cell and then destroys it?

virus


What are Viruses that immediately take over a cell's functions called?

A virus the immediately takes over a cell's functions is an active virus. An active virus causes the host cell to make new viruses, destroying the host cell.


How does a virus attach to a cell and transfer its genetic material into the cell?

It has to have a host cell that way the virus can multiply in the cell and destroy it. After it destroys that cell it can go to another one and destroy it.


What is active disease?

An "active virus" is when a virus enters a cell and is active, it causes the host cell to make new viruses. This process destroys the host cell. The steps are first, the virus attach's to a host cell. Second, the virus's hereditary material enters the host cell. Third, the virus's hereditary material causes the cell to make viral hereditary material and proteins. Fourth, new viruses from inside the host cell. Fifth, new viruses are released as the host cell bursts open and is destroyed. There are five steps on how a active virus functions inside a cell.


What is true about a lysogenic infection?

Many viruses enter the lytic cycle immediately following infecting the host cell. However, some viruses may not lyse their host immediately and enter the lysogenic cycle. At the start of the lysogenic cycle, the virus genome is integrated into the host chromosome instead of being immediately transcribed and translated. The virus genome then lies dormant in the host chromosome until a later event triggers its excision from the host chromosome. The excised viral genome will then be transcribed and translated and the virus enters the lytic cycle. the virus hides in the host's DNA.


How are the lysogenic and lytic cycles different?

causes Disease


What is the cell in which a virus reproduces?

This is called a host cell. In the beginning, a virus will attach itself to the host cell and release its genetic material into it. This genetic material interferes with the host cell's enzymes which cause them to form parts in which will create a new virus.


What destroys virus particles outside the host?

capsid wall


What is the cell that a virus infects?

Host Cell


Sentence with host cell?

A cell can be reproduce by a host cell


What three steps occur after a virus attaches and enters a host cell?

When a virus enters a cell and is active, it causes the host cell to make new viruses, this process destroys active virus functions inside a cell.....it like 'tricks' the host cell that it's one of the cells
