I have hydrocephalus and its not "viral" hydrocephalus, its congenital (i believe that's how its spelled.) anyways congenital hydrocephalus is present or detected at birth without it being in your ancestry. Genetic hydrocephalus means it was passed on from a generation or family member before you.
The only difference between viral and bacterial encephalitis is what causes it. They are exactly the same condition except one is started via a virus and one is started by a bacteria.
A bacteriophage is a completely assembled virus capable of landing on a bacterium and injecting it's genetic material in lysis, or a lysogenic attack. A provirus is a virus that has incorporated it's genetic material into the genetic material of the host for continual replication, thus, " before " the phage. This is the lysogenic phase of viral attack.
No it not genetic-it is caused by a virus that attacks the heart muscle. CHF is not genetic either it has many different causes but none are genetic.
No. Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease.
Both transformation and viral transduction are methods used to introduce foreign DNA into a host cell. They can both result in genetic changes in the host cell. However, transformation involves uptake of naked DNA by the cell, while viral transduction involves the transfer of DNA by a virus.
Yes, viral genes can redirect the genetic and metabolic activities of a host cell by hijacking the host cell's machinery to replicate the virus. This can lead to changes in the host cell's gene expression and metabolism to favor viral replication and spread.
No. Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease.
No. Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive genetic disease.
i am not really sure

Viral vectors are modified viruses that can carry genetic material into cells. They work by infecting cells and inserting the desired genetic material into the cell's DNA. This allows the cell to produce the desired protein or carry out a specific function.
