When a virus enters a cell it?
Hijacks the cellular machinery and enters a lytic or lysogenic lifecycle.
How do viruses get into bacterial cell?
A virus has proteins on its capsid that bind to living host cell. Once the virus has attached it enters the cell or inserts DNA/RNA into the cell.
Type of virus that begins to multiply immediately after it enters a cell?
protein
What type of virus enters the cell and doesn't immediately attack?
Hidden viruses, I believe.
How do cells respond to a bacteria or virus?
If a virus enters a bacteria cell, the virus will try to infiltrate the cell's central code. If the cell catches it in time, it may be stopped (like a disease virus), but many times the bacterial virus will reproduce inside the cell. Hidden virus will become part of the cell's genetic material code upon entering, and will eventually reproduce. Active virus are easier to spot, as they try to start reproducing after "laying eggs" getting inside the cell.
What is the portion of the virus that actually enters the host cell?
its genetic material
What stage is it when a virus enters a host cell?
The virus enters the host cell in the penetration phase.
What happens when a virus enters a plant cell?
The cell becomes a virus breeding machine the virus takes over the cell and uses it to make more viruses
Why virus does not success to duplicate into the cell?
Once the virus enters the cell, unless it is deformed in some way, it will have success.
What virus enters a cell and becomes part of the cells DNA without destroying the cell or replicating itself?
A Latent Virus

What is lytic reproduction?
ex. a virus enters a cell, replicates, and then "lyses" (ruptures) the cell. those virus particles are now free to infect other cells.
What is a latent virus?
Latent Viruses: some viruses can be latent. That means that after the virus enters a cell, its hereditary material can become part of the cell's hereditary material.
What is the quest of a virus?
When you say "quest" did you mean the virus' goal? If this is the case, one needs to understand that a virus is actually not a cell but rather a fragment that carries either DNA or RNA strands. These strands are often protected in a viral envelope or capsule. Once the virus enters a target cell, it releases these DNA or RNA strands into the cell's nucleus. This is taken up by the host cell creating various changes in the host cell's genetic makeup.
What is active disease?
An "active virus" is when a virus enters a cell and is active, it causes the host cell to make new viruses. This process destroys the host cell. The steps are first, the virus attach's to a host cell. Second, the virus's hereditary material enters the host cell. Third, the virus's hereditary material causes the cell to make viral hereditary material and proteins. Fourth, new viruses from inside the host cell. Fifth, new viruses are released as the host cell bursts open and is destroyed. There are five steps on how a active virus functions inside a cell.
