Main difference is that viruses can only reproduce by hijacking living cells. No cells, no viral reproduction. It rewires the cell to produce more copies of itself, then makes the cell self-destruct sending out the copies. Cellular reproduction is in a category of its own.
Two possible phases may occur. In a lytic phase, the viral DNA commands the reproduction of numerous more viral copies. Upon the production of a sufficient population of viruses within the cell's membrane, the virus break the cell membrane, destroying the cell The lysogenic phase occurs when the viral nucleic acid is incorporated into the cellular genome. Then the cell reproduces as a hybrid cell, also reproducin the viral nucleic acid. This phase is less harmful to the host cell, while it still allows for the onset of the lytic phase. In other words: Lytic phase: more virus bodies and cellular destruction Lysogenic phase: Viral genome is integrated into cellular DNA and reproduced by regular division. Cell is not necesarily harmed but could still result in Lytic phase.
During viral uncoating, the viral capsid is disassembled, releasing the viral genome into the host cell. This process allows the viral genome to access the host cell's machinery for replication and production of new virus particles.
Scientists first learned about reproduction in viruses by studying the bacteriophage, a virus that infects bacteria. The bacteriophage lifecycle involves attachment, penetration, replication, and release of new viral particles, providing insight into how viruses replicate. This research has been pivotal in understanding the mechanisms of viral reproduction and in developing antiviral strategies.
The stage of viral reproduction that takes place when the spikes of the virus bind to a specific receptor molecule on the surface of a host cell is known as attachment or adsorption. This step is crucial for the virus to gain entry into the host cell and initiate the infection process.
Viruses reproduce asexually in host cells because they are technically non-living organisms, they cannot reproduce sexually for that would require a virus to have two different virus "cells" (even though they are not living) in a host cell before the process of reproducing starts. This would cause the two viruses to "kill" each other before either could reproduce.
the viral reproduction is a virus that can't be stoped
Virus factories are commonly referred to as "viral factories" or "viral replication centers." These are specialized cellular compartments where viruses replicate and assemble new viral particles. They often exploit host cellular machinery and resources to facilitate the production of new viruses, ultimately leading to their release from the infected cell.
Viruses do produce cellular proteins that are necessary for viral synthesis.
Viral reproduction occurs inside host cells. Viruses infect host cells and use their cellular machinery to replicate and produce new virus particles. This process eventually leads to the release of new viruses, which can go on to infect other cells and continue the cycle of infection.

Viruses lack cellular machinery and cannot synthesize proteins on their own. Instead, they hijack the host cell's ribosomes and other cellular components upon infection. Once inside a host cell, the viral genome (either RNA or DNA) is transcribed and translated into viral proteins using the host's cellular machinery, enabling the virus to replicate and assemble new viral particles.
Viral Infections are diagnosed by the presence of the immune systems production of antibodies, viral fighting cells produced specifically for that specific virus.
