The reason why a host cell is unable to make it`s protein while the invading virus replicates is because viruses typically not considered living organisms
Envelopes aid the virus in entering the host's cells. Glycoproteins on the envelope's surface are unique to the virus. They identify and bind to receptor sites on the host's cell membrane.
A virus isn't alive it cannot reproduce without invading a 'host cell' therefore it does not fit the criteria of a life form and cannot belong to a biological kingdom.
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
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.
A virus replicates inside a host cell. For example 'Bacteriophase'
virus can't live outside host cell
The virus enters the host cell in the penetration phase.
The host cell does not benefit from having a virus. The virus usually kills it.
It can do nothing. It needs the host cell to make more virus particles.
First the virus enters the host cell, then the virus' hereditary material come, then the host cells hereditary material becomes viral, then the host cell expands, and then it POPS!!!
