This virus' image, using an electron microscope, shows an inclusion which appears to be similar to a nucleus. (Viruses have strands of RNA or DNA but no nucleus.) That is where the "nuclear" originates from.
Polyhedral means that the virus has many sides. This is one of three shapes that viruses show.
It affects the Wattle Bag Worm, the Korean Gypsy Moth, and cabbage leaves.

What is the structure of a typical virus?
A virus is basically DNA or RNA (single- or double-stranded)surrounded by a protein capsule. Typically the protein coat, or capsid, of an individual virus particle, or virion, is composed of multiple copies of one or several types of protein subunits, or capsomeres. Some viruses contain enzymes, and some have an outer membranous envelope. Many viruses have striking geometrically regular shapes, with helical structure as in tobacco mosaic virus, polyhedral (often icosahedral) symmetry as in herpes virus, or more complex mixtures of arrangements as in large viruses, such as the pox viruses and the larger bacterial viruses, or bacteriophages . Certain viruses, such as bacteriophages, have complex protein tails. The inner viral genetic material -the nucleic acid- may be double stranded, with two complementary strands, or single stranded; it may be deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) or ribonucleic acid (RNA). The nucleic acid specifies information for the synthesis of from a few to as many as 50 different proteins, depending on the type of virus.
What 's nuclear?
Nuclear is any activity related to the nuclei of atoms as nuclear energy, nuclear fission, nuclear engineering, nuclear physics, etc.
What is the double membrane surrounding the nucleus?
The nuclear membrane Actually, i think it is called the nuclear envelope.
What kind of virus is the AIDS virus?
its a very bad virus. bad virus is no category . It is retro virus
What does a hidden virus do?
a hidden virus is were your virus is hidden so you have a virus but you can't see it. so its called a hidden virus.
Is the T2 phage virus polyhedral or helical?
polyhedral
What are the 4 basic virus shapes?
Spacecraft, spherical, crystal, and cylinder , and these are the 4 basic shapes of virus
What is structure viruses?
A virus has a protein coat called a capsid with either DNA or RNA inside. A virus can have one of three structures. These are: 1. Helical virus. A helical virus is rod- or thread-shaped. The virus that causes rabies is a helical virus. 2. Icosahedral virus. An icosahedral virus is spherically shaped. Viruses that cause poliomyelitis and herpes simplex are icosahedral viruses. 3. Polyhedral Cylindrical shapes: Tobacco mosaic virus Wheat streak virus Hepatitis C
The virus can survive a nuclear war?
Some can.
What is polyhedral?
Of or relating to or resembling a polyhedron.
Is a decahedral die a regular polyhedral?
NO
Where is the material of a virus located?
If you mean the nuclear material, it is located in the capsid of the virus. It can be either RNA or DNA.
What 3d shape has 4 faces 8 edges 6 vertices?
There is no such simply connected polyhedron.There is no such polyhedral shape.
What are the plane surfaces on a polyhedral called?
Faces.Faces.Faces.Faces.
Which regular polyhedron you miss from the set polyhedral dice?
octahedral
Are bacterial viruses with a polyhedral head attached to a helical tail?
bacteriophages
What is the geometric shape does a virous prefer?
Viruses have different geometrical shapes, such as helical and polyhedral shapes. A particular polyhedral shape common to many viruses is a dodecahedron shape. This is a geometric shape that has 12 sides.
