A virus replicates itself inside a cell. It uses the chemicals present in the cell as the raw material for its own reproduction.

Virus cannot replicate it self. It should enter into a host
a virus is able to replicate itself bu taking over the metabolic activities of the cell it infects essentially saying stop what you are suppose to do and make copies of me. so the virus actually doesn't replicate itself but rather the cell in which it infects does it for it. this occurs during the lytic phase of the virus. sometimes the virus "hides" by incorporating itself within the dna of the cell it infects(causing certain cancers) until it is releases itself and says make me. this dormant phase is called lysogenic.
A worm can replicate itself and does not need a host for distribution
A computer program that is designed to replicate itself by copying itself into the other programs stored in a computer.

Viruses attach themselves to and then replicate inside of a cell in order to replicate itself. DNA viruses replicate in a cell's nucleus while RNA viruses generally replicate in the cell's cytoplasm.
Yes. Like all viruses, it goes inside a host cell and replicates itself.
Yes. HIV attaches to the cells, then uses them to replicate copies of the virus.
No, a virus is not a cell at all. It is neither prokaryotic nor eukaryotic but can invade either in order to replicate itself. Viruses that invade prokaryotes are called bacteriophages.
A virus affects humans by invading a cell. The virus then forces the cell to produce viral material rather than cell material. This causes the cell to replicate the virus rather than itself.
that depends on the kind of virus. biological ones replicate by infecting other healthy cells and forcing those cells to make copies of the virus
Usually the first action that a virus or worm performs is to replicate itself. This attempts to ensure that the virus or worm spreads before being detected by a payload.
HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is the virus that causes AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome). HIV is a retrovirus that needs human cells to replicate itself. HIV is covered in receptors that allow it to attach to human white blood cells. After attaching to the cell, the virus "reprograms" the way the white blood cell (or "T Cell") to become what could effectively be called a virus factory. It teaches the cell how to replicate itself.
Viruses do not have cells or any of the mechanisms to replicate any of their components. Because of this, the virus must hijack the mechanisms of a living cell in order to make copies of itself.
Because a virus is not any kind of an organism, its only part of one. Its not alive ... its just information ... that uses a living thing (some organism) to replicate itself.
Because its a virus! And a virus terminates files and destroy your system. Worm can replicate itself from one to another and transfer itself through email, Drives, or connection in any ways depending on what the worm has been programmed to.
A virus will replicate within a host cell.
A virus replicates its DNA in a cell when it infects the host
Viruses replicate by hijacking a host's cells. The virus inserts its own RNA sequence into the host cell's nucleus, forcing it to replicate the virus until the host cell dies.
Viruses do not directly need energy. The virus takes control of the host cell in order to replicate. The host cell's own metabolic machinery is used to synthesize the components of new viruses. The virus itself is passive.
A virus needs a host cell because it can not produce more of itself without the host. It is as if you could not be able to think if you had no brain, or walk without legs.
The preferred term for the reproduction of a virus is replication. They replicate.
A computer virus is a computer program that can replicate itself and spread from one computer to another. The term "virus" is also commonly, but erroneously used, to refer to other types of malware, including but not limited to adware and spyware programs that do not have a reproductive ability.
Viruses replicate fast and mutate easily.
Lysogenic is when the virus enters and binds into the hosts DNA and one could replicate slowly or two when the virus sense the host cell is about to die, the virus will go into lyic cycle and replicate and kills the host cell.
