A latent virus remains dormant in the host cell without causing symptoms, but can reactivate later to cause disease. An active virus continuously replicates and causes symptoms, leading to an active infection. Both types of viruses can cause disease, but latent viruses have periods of inactivity while active viruses are constantly causing symptoms.

What is chronic latent state?
Chronic latent state refers to a persistent but inactive phase of a disease or condition where symptoms are not present but the causative agent (such as a virus or bacteria) remains in the body. This phase can last for an extended period without causing any symptoms or signs of active infection.
What is an example of an latent virus?
an example of a latent virus is a host cell
The re-emerging of symptoms from a reactivated latent virus is?
known as a viral reactivation. It occurs when the virus becomes active again after being inactive in the body for a period of time. This can happen due to factors such as stress, illness, or a weakened immune system.
What is the difference between latent infection and inapparent infection?
An inapparent infection occurs when a susceptible person is exposed to an agent, is consequently infected, but neverdevelops clinical symptoms (subclinical). An inapparent infection may result in immunity - but they may not develop immunity and could even become a carrier.In contrast, an exposed susceptible person may develop symptoms (clinical infection), but later enter a period where they no longer exhibit those symptoms. This person would be said to have a "latent infection". They have not recovered - they are still infected -- and they might start to exhibit clinical symptoms later.Exposed ---- Infected ------ no symptoms --------------------------------------> Resolution INAPPARENT INFECTIONExposed ---- Infected ----- symptoms ----no symptoms ---- symptoms ----> Resolution|< Latent Infection>|- Dominick A.

Compare and contrast the lytic and lysogenic cycles.?
In the lytic cycle, a virus enters a host cell, replicates quickly, and then bursts the cell to release new viruses. This results in immediate cell lysis and destruction. In the lysogenic cycle, the virus incorporates its genetic material into the host cell's DNA and remains dormant for some time before switching to the lytic cycle. This allows the virus to persist within the host for an extended period without causing immediate harm.
Is Ebola a latent or active virus?

What type of virus is not active inside of you?
This is called a latent virus.
Latent virus becoming active?
A latent virus is a unactive virus that sits in your body that eventually becomes active with no explained reason. An example is a cold sore. You dont know its coming until its done. That is a virus in your lip.
How do active and latent viral infections differ?
Active viral infections occur when a virus replicates and causes symptoms in the host, leading to the production of new viral particles. In contrast, latent viral infections involve the virus remaining dormant within the host's cells without causing immediate symptoms; it can reactivate later, potentially leading to active infection again. This distinction is crucial for understanding viral behavior in the body and for treatment approaches. Examples include herpes simplex virus for latent infections and influenza virus for active infections.
What happens when a latent virus becomes active?
You will die fast dummy
What is a lantent virus?
A latent virus is a virus that is not active, but could be. For instance, after a person has chickenpox, the outbreak clears up, but it could outbreak again later in life as shingles. The virus never goes away, just becomes latent.
What is the difference between active virus and latent virus?
A hidden virus is known in the words in its name "HIDDEN virus". It hides and stays inactive. The active virus is also known in its name too "ACTIVE virus". The two viruses have different ways on spreading it own kind throughout the host or hosts.
What is it called when a virus enters a body but not active?
When a virus enters a body but remains inactive, it is referred to as a "latent" infection. In this state, the virus may remain dormant within host cells without causing symptoms or replicating. Latent infections can reactivate later, leading to active disease. Examples include the herpes simplex virus and varicella-zoster virus.
Is the common cold an active or inactive virus?
Cold sores are caused by a virus HSV-type 1.Yes oral herpes is a viral infection.
What is latent state?
Herpes virus that latent in the nerves
What is chronic latent state?
Chronic latent state refers to a persistent but inactive phase of a disease or condition where symptoms are not present but the causative agent (such as a virus or bacteria) remains in the body. This phase can last for an extended period without causing any symptoms or signs of active infection.
