Is smallpox a DNA virus or an RNA virus?
Smallpox contains DNASmallpox is a virus, and therefore, can only have RNA or DNA. In the case of smallpox, it contains DNA. Viruses require a host to supply them with either RNA or DNA in order that more virus entities can be made.DNA

What does the nucleic acid of a virus consist of?
The nucleic acid of a virus consists of either DNA or RNA, which contains the genetic information required for the virus to replicate and infect host cells. This genetic material directs the virus's metabolism and ability to hijack host cellular machinery for its own reproduction.
Viruses that contain RNA as their genetic information are called?
A retrovirus contains RNA as its genetic information. When a retrovirus infects a cell, it uses its own enzymes to produce DNA from its RNA. Then the DNA becomes part of the host cell's genome, and it will be transcribed and translated along with the host cell's DNA, thereby turning the cell into a virus factory. It is called a retrovirus because the original order of DNA ---> RNA ---> protein is reversed to RNA ---> DNA ---> RNA ---> protein.
A virus that stores its genetic information as RNA is called?
It is called a Retrovirus HIV is an example of a Retrovirus
What is the difference between a common animal virus and a retrovirus?
The difference between a common animal virus and a retrovirus is that a retrovirus only contains RNA while a common animal virus will have DNA or RNA.
What type of virus contains reverse transcriptase and what type of nucleic acid does this virus type contain?
It contains retroviruses, like HIV and it also contains RNA nucleic acids.
