Does a virus need food warth and moisture to grow?
No, viruses do not grow in the same way that bacteria or fungi do. They need a host cell to replicate and spread. Once inside a host cell, viruses use the cell's machinery to make copies of themselves.
Why do bacteria grow on gelatin in a peri dish and viruses cannot grow in this manner?
Because viruses are considered nonliving and they need a host to reproduce, therfore they cannot live on their own. Now bacteria can reproduce asexually, so they can get bigger and do not need a host..
Why do you need plenty of vitamin c?
we need the vitamin c to grow up to have more sex cell and to have a proteccion of viruses and bactirias
Why would viruses not grow on milk?
Viruses require living cells to replicate and grow. Milk does not contain living cells, so viruses cannot infect or reproduce in milk. Additionally, milk has natural defense mechanisms, such as enzymes and antibodies, that can inhibit the growth of viruses.
What is the chemical that interferes with how viruses grow?
Interferon
Can parasites and virus grow in food?
no. . . Because parasites and viruses can only grow on living matters... There may be saprophytes and bacteria growing in your food. . . Even parasites and viruses can be there but can not grow. .
What conditions do Micro Organisms like yeast need to grow?
Yeast needs warmth, food and moisture to grow while bacteria needs warmth, food , correct ph,oxygen, and time to grow. Moulds need warm, moist conditions and viruses need time and opportunity for the conditions to be right for them to thrive.
What is the difference between bacteria and viruses show that bacteria are living organism and viruses are not?
Bacteria are able to reproduce on their own while viruses need a host to "hijack" so they can reproduce. Bacteria have metabolisms, catabolic and anabolic biochemical reactions going on in their cells all the time. Viruses do not. Bacteria can grow in size to a certain extent while viruses do not change in this regard. The definition of living things classify bacteria as a living thing, while viruses are not.

What viruses cannot?
They can not reproduce without a host as reproductive vector. They have no metabolism and do not preform cellular functions. Viruses are genetic material enclosed in a protein capsid.
What non living things grow?
viruses are non-living yet they can grow and spread through bodies
Do viruses grow or develop in a host organism?
Viruses do not grow or develop in a host organism like bacteria do. Instead, they replicate by hijacking the host cell's machinery to make more virus particles.
