How does the west nile virus attack the host cell?
The west nile virus does not attack a host cell. the virus flows through your blood stream and spreads through your blood stream. Incorrect: West Nile Virus does attack a host cell: the nerves. It produces effects similar to polio.
Are people with Sickle cell disease immune to west nile virus?
yes they are
How does a latent virus reproduce?
1)A SPECIFIC virus attaches to the surface of a specific bacteria cell.hereditary material of the virus injects into the cell. 2)The viral hereditary material may become a part of the bacterial cell's chromosome. 3)The bacterial cell divides the virus is now part of two cells inseted of one 4)The virus become active. 5)New virus are made 6)The bacterial cell breaks open and releases the viruses, thereby destroying the host bacterial cell.
Why cant every virus infect every living cell?
Viruses are target specific
What is the cell of an organism upon which a virus depends is?
That depends. All viruses have a marker that binds to a specific site on a cell. For example, HIV virus will only be infectious to humans because only humans possess a cell with the correct binding sites.

What cell does the west nile virus attack?
Central neverous system
Are people with Sickle cell disease immune to west nile virus?
yes they are
Is west nile virus single cell?
Viruses aren't really technically cells. They aren't really even organisms. They're just viruses.
How does west nile virus reproduce?
The virus attaches to the cell via a receptor, enters the cell, and releases nucleocapsid. The viral RNA is translated into three structural and seven non-structural proteins. The positive viral RNA is then translated into negative RNA and this acts as a template for synthesis of more viral positive RNA.
Does west nile virus have legs?
viruses don't have legs (or heads, or eyes, etc) they're one-celled, like bacteria, only smaller in fact, they're more like "half a cell" since they don't have a lot of the elements in a standard cell
Can a specific virus adhere to and infect any type of cell?
no it cannot
Is it true that a specific virus can adhere to and infect any type of cell?
false

Why cant every virus infect every living cell?
Viruses are target specific
How are viruses highly specific to the cell they infect?
The protein capsid of the virus will only fit in a protein marker of a certain cell with that marker, which creates specificity to the cell they infect. For this reason, a virus that is harmful to a plant may be harmless to humans.
Where can I get a Drawing of a virus cell?
No where. A virus is not a cell.
