What kind of virus make the host cell create new viruses?
viruses
What kind of cell lacks the nucleus and other organelles?
viruses...
Would the invasion of a cell by viruses increase decrease or have no effect on the osmolarity of a cell?
The invasion of a cell by viruses increases the cell's osmolarity. This occurs because the viruses act like any other particle. As the number of viruses increases, the number of particles in the cells increases as well. This increased particle number gives the cells an increased osmolarity that could eventually lead to cellular lysis.
What do viruses that cause physical diseases infect?
It depends on what kind of virus. Viruses can infect any cell in the human body. Viruses such as HIV infect the immune system; air-born viruses, such as H1N1 or a cold, infect the respiratory system; neurological viruses, like rabies infect the brain (the virus is usually carried to it by peripheral nerves); and viruses like polio effect the nervous system, which can create paralysis.
Which virus enters a cell and the virus's genetic material becomes part of the cell?
This is something all viruses do in effect when they attack a cell and make the cell start producing new viruses as a part of their reproductive process. See the related question below about the Lytic Cycle which describes the steps in that process.
Does virus makes the cell it is in produce more viruses?
Yes, viruses use the cell that it has invaded to produce more viruses.
Viruses make the host cell produce new viruses which kills th host cell?
Yes, viruses hijack the host cell's machinery to replicate themselves, eventually causing the cell to burst and release new viruses. This process, known as lysis, results in the death of the host cell.
What kind of host does a virus need to reproduce?
Viruses need any kind of cell. Some have "favorites" like white blood cells (HIV).
What is the part of the cell that viruses invade?
Viruses can infect animals, plants and bacteria, and the attachments vary. In animal viruses: Animal cells have a cell membrane. Viruses attach to certain proteins in that membrane. In plant viruses: Plants can also be infected with viruses. Since they have cell walls, viruses attach to those when infecting plants. In bacteriophages (viruses that infect bacteria): Special viruses called bacteriophages attach to the cell walls of bacteria by way of proteins.
Is there a cell membrane in viruses?
Viruses dont have a cell membrane. Instead, they have a protein sheath.
Do Most DNA viruses multiply in the host cell's cell membrane?
No, DNA viruses multiply in the host cell's nucleus, while most RNA viruses multiply in the host cell's cytoplasm
How are viruses spread cell to cell?
New viruses are released after the lytic cycle. ~Gradpoint/Novanet
