What does the outer coat of a virus do?
It protects the virus and its genetic material
Where is the genetic materials of a viral located?
Genetic material of a virus it can be DNA or RNA.
How does an active virus multiply?
Once inside a cell, a virus's genetic material takes over of the cell's functions. It instructs the cell to produce the virus's proteins and genetic material. These proteins and genetic material then assemble into new viruses.
What does a typical virus cell look like?
A virus is a relatively long molecule, not a cell.
When a virus invades a living cell what takes over the cells functions?
The virus's genetic material.
Where is the genetic material of the virus located?
The genetic material of a virus is located inside its capsid.
Where is the genetic materials of a virus located?
The genetic material of a virus is located inside its capsid.
The genetic material of a virus is found in its .?
The genetic material of a virus is found in the capsid.
During transcription the genetic information is rewritten as a molecule of?
During transcription, the genetic information is rewritten as a molecule of
What is the special molecule that contains genetic material?
The special molecule that contains genetic material is called a chromosome.
On what molecule is the genetic code of the cell found?
Genetic code of the cell is found in a long molecule known as DNA.
What is a virus molecule of genetic material surrounded by a protein coat?
The retroviruses are enveloped viruses that have two complete copies of RNA. They also contain the enzyme reverse transcriptase.
What is a virus that stores its genetic material as RNA called?
A virus that stores its genetic material as RNA is called a RETROVIRUS
Additional steps that occur when a hidden virus multiplies?
The virus's genetic material becomes part of the genetic material of the bacterium And After some time he virus's genetic material removes itself and becomes active
