There is no conscious decision made by a virus in selecting a host. Probability and statistics determine who contracts a virus and who doesn't.
I don't know! Why are you asking me?????
Virologists are in the field of microbiology. They study viruses, including their structure, replication, evolution, and interactions with hosts.
Viruses are thought to have evolved from ancient cellular organisms, possibly derived from genetic elements that "escaped" from cells. It is believed that viruses originated billions of years ago and have co-evolved with their hosts, adapting to exploit different cellular mechanisms for replication and survival.
Viruses can be classified based on their genetic material (DNA or RNA), their morphology (shape and structure), their host range (types of organisms they infect), and their mode of transmission (how they spread between hosts).
Viruses do not have the ability to evolve in the same way as living organisms with DNA. However, they can undergo genetic changes through mutations and recombination which can impact their ability to infect hosts and evade the immune system. This can lead to the emergence of new strains or variants of viruses.
yes but in hosts by tempering with hosts cell DNA/RNA
Some viruses can move parts of their body, but most viruses rely on their hosts.
I don't know! Why are you asking me?????
Viruses are immobile. They can not move on their own, and rely on their hosts biological systems to move them around.
No. Virus need to rely on hosts to reproduce.
Yes,they live in hosts only to reproduce.
No.
The lysogynistic cycle where they insert their DNA/RNA into the hosts genetic material for many rounds of their own replication along with the hosts replication.
viruses must bind precisely to proteins on the cell surface and than use a hosts genetic system, this is why most viruses are highly specific to the cells they infect
Virology is a branch of life science that focuses on the study of viruses, including their structure, classification, and evolution. It involves understanding how viruses interact with their hosts and the environment.
