It can do nothing. It needs the host cell to make more virus particles.
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.
A virus that replicates without killing the host cell is called a "persistent virus." These viruses establish long-term infections within the host, allowing them to continue to replicate and spread without causing cell death.
Host Cell
The virus attaches to the host cell, it takes over the functions of the host cell, and it eventually destroys it. If there was no host cell, the virus would die.
A virus outside a host cell is generally referred to as a virion. This is the inactive form of the virus that is unable to replicate until it enters a suitable host cell.
The virus enters the host cell in the penetration phase.
The host cell does not benefit from having a virus. The virus usually kills it.
The cell invaded by the virus is called a host cell because it provides the environment and resources necessary for the virus to replicate and multiply. The virus uses the host cell's machinery to produce more viruses, ultimately leading to the destruction of the host cell.
A host cell for a virus is a cell that the virus can infect and hijack to replicate itself. The virus enters the host cell, takes over its machinery to produce more virus particles, and then spreads to infect other cells.
A virus needs a host cell to survive and replicate. Once inside a host cell, the virus can hijack the cell's machinery to make copies of itself. Without a host cell, viruses cannot survive for long periods outside of a living organism.
A virus attaches to a host cell by recognizing and binding to specific proteins or receptors on the cell surface. This attachment is necessary for the virus to enter the host cell and begin the process of infection.
First the virus enters the host cell, then the virus' hereditary material come, then the host cells hereditary material becomes viral, then the host cell expands, and then it POPS!!!
