The answer will be extremely unprofessional, however after landing on the cell, it has leg like structures which allow it to propel itself into the cell, where it starts goofing around and steeling it's DNA in order to reproduce.

Why does a virus only attach to only one cell?

A virus attaches to a specific cell because it has proteins on its surface that can only bind to receptors on that specific cell. This binding is necessary for the virus to enter the cell and replicate. This specificity is determined by the structure of the virus and the receptors on the cell surface.

How does a virus attatch to a host cell?

A virus attaches to a host cell by recognizing and binding to specific proteins or receptors on the cell surface. This attachment is necessary for the virus to enter the host cell and begin the process of infection.

How does a virus attach to a cell and transfer its genetic material into the cell?

A virus attaches to a host cell by recognizing specific receptors on the cell surface. It then injects its genetic material, either DNA or RNA, into the cell. Once inside, the virus hijacks the cell's machinery to replicate its genetic material and produce more virus particles.


Does yellow fever have a cell wall?

The yellow fever virus is released through a cell wall. Generally viruses do not have a cell wall. However, they attach to cell walls.


How does a virus spread from one host to another?

First, the virus hijacks the cell and makes it become a virus-making factory. As new virus particles are created in the cell, eventually they fill the cell to the point of bursting open. When this happens, the particles are released where they can then each attach to and hijack a new cell, and the process repeats until your immune system creates the needed antibodies to stop the new viruses from being able to attach to and infect new cells.
