Cell in which a virus multiplies it self?
A virus replicates inside a host cell. For example 'Bacteriophase'
How does the virus Ebola multiply?
Yes. Like all viruses, it goes inside a host cell and replicates itself.
Where does a virus replicate its DNA?
A virus replicates its DNA in a cell when it infects the host
What happens to a cell's DNA prior to cell division?
It replicates.
What organism replicates by taking over the genetic material of a host cell?
A virus.
Where does a virus replicate itself?
Viruses do not reproduce since they are not alive but they hijack the host's DNA to make more viruses.
Why is a host cell unable to make its own proteins if the invading virus replicates?
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
What is lytic reproduction?
ex. a virus enters a cell, replicates, and then "lyses" (ruptures) the cell. those virus particles are now free to infect other cells.
How does a virus affect cell functions?
DNA, then RNA - it replicates itself and spreads. In doing so, breaks cell walls.
What is neuramidase?
It is a protein on the influenza virus that is thought to help the virus escape from the cell after it replicates. Zanamivir and oseltamivir are drugs that inhibit this action and thus trap virus particles within an infected cell.
What happens to DNA during cell division?
It replicates to the new cell being created. An exact clone of the original cell.
An infection in which DNA of a virus is embedded into a host cell and replicates with host DNA is called what?
A Lysogenic Infection
