They are not too small, per se, rather they lack the biological mechanisms to do so (which is arguably related to their size) and so, to put it simply, "inject" their genetic material into other cells, which will then replicate the virus instead of it's self during DNA transcription/translation.
BACTERIA release harmful toxins. VIRUSES take over your cells completely and make copies of themselves! : )
Viruses don't actually reproduce by themselves. When they enter somebodies body, they take over a cell and sort of hack its system to make the cell produce copies of the virus and not itself. That is why you get sick.
Viruses replicate inside the host cells they infect. They hijack the cellular machinery of the host to make copies of themselves, leading to the multiplication of the virus.
Viruses replicate by hijacking host cells and using their machinery to make copies of themselves. Once inside a host cell, the virus releases its genetic material, which then directs the host cell to produce viral proteins and assemble new viral particles. These new virus particles can then infect other cells and continue the replication cycle.
Nothing alive.so it's just like a small blob with a million keys to unlock your cells, infect them and instruct them to make copies of the viruses
Only within a living cell that they can take control of.
Viruses need a host cell to reproduce. Once they have infected a host cell, they use the cell’s machinery to make copies of themselves. This process eventually leads to the host cell bursting open and releasing new viruses to infect other cells.
Yes, viruses can reproduce inside host cells by hijacking the host cell's machinery to make copies of themselves. This can cause the host cell to burst, releasing the newly formed viruses to infect other cells.
No, viruses do not grow in the same way that bacteria or fungi do. They need a host cell to replicate and spread. Once inside a host cell, viruses use the cell's machinery to make copies of themselves.
Viruses use their DNA or RNA to replicate themselves within a host cell. They hijack the cell's machinery to make copies of their genetic material and produce new virus particles, which can then infect other cells. This leads to the spread of the virus within the host and potentially to other individuals.
Since viruses are nonliving they have to invade and hijack a living cells DNA to make more copies of itself. If it cannot do this it cannot make more copies of itself.
