It is called a host cell. The virus attaches to the cell and injects its DNA into the cell. The virus's DNA overruns the "instructions" that the cell has and "tells" the cell to make copies of the virus using the DNA. Then the cell makes so many copies of the virus, that it explodes. The new viruses then go on to attach to other cells.
What else can I help you with?
The cell infected by a virus is referred to as the?
The cell infected by a virus is referred to as the host cell. The virus hijacks the host cell's machinery to replicate and produce more virus particles.
How does your body benefit when a white blood cell kills a cell that has been infected by a virus?
Your body benefits when a white blood cell kills a cell that has been infected by a virus because the cells that was infected is no longer able to infect other cells with the bacteria. If the cell is not killed the virus in the cell will infect other cells. this may cause diseases that can be life threatening.
What component of a virus is injected into the infected cell?
The components of a virus that is injected into the infected cell is either the RNA or DNA. A virus is composed of two parts a nucleic acid part and a protein part.
What component of a virus is injected into infected cell?
The genetic material of a virus, either DNA or RNA, is injected into an infected cell. This genetic material contains the instructions needed for the virus to hijack the cell's machinery and replicate itself.
How does interferon help virus infected cell?
Interferons are signaling proteins that are released by cells in the immune system in response to viral infections. They help to inhibit viral replication within infected cells by activating mechanisms that make the cell less hospitable to the virus, such as degrading viral RNA and proteins. Interferons also help to stimulate immune responses that target and eliminate virus-infected cells.

Does a virus use ATP?
no, that is supplied by the infected cell.
What component of a virus is injected into infected cell?
The genetic material of a virus, either DNA or RNA, is injected into an infected cell. This genetic material contains the instructions needed for the virus to hijack the cell's machinery and replicate itself.
What does T cytotoxic cell do?
A cytotoxic T cell kills cells that have been infected by a virus or bacterium. It does this by puncturing the cell's membrane and by emitting a toxin that kills cells.
What stimulates the production of interferions?
When a cell is infected with a virus, the cell secrets interferon to help the other cells to resist to this virus. Hope it helps!!
What is produced by cells infected with viruses?
More viruses. Cells infected with virus DNA are essentially converted into virus factories. Instead of producing the materials the cell needs to reproduce, it produces dormant viruses, until the cell bursts and the new viruses begin infecting other cells.
How do microorganisms transmit?
It could have previously been infected by a virus, where the virus DNA is inserted into the cell, causing it to explode and reproduce hundreds of viruses. Or it could carry it like any other animal.
How do microorganism transmit diseases?
It could have previously been infected by a virus, where the virus DNA is inserted into the cell, causing it to explode and reproduce hundreds of viruses. Or it could carry it like any other animal.
How could many cells contain copies of the nucleic acid from one virus?
The cells could have all been produced via asexual reproduction from a single virus cell, or have been rroduced for by normal reproduction. In this sense, the daughter cells would contain the same nucleic aid, as they come from the same virus cell.
What uses an infected host cell's genetic and metabolic machinery for reproduction and assembly?
a virus
