They are like cockle burrs that "grab" hold of your clothing or a dog's coat. They are hijackers. Once they get attached to the cell wall or membrane of a living cell, they can take it over and "make" the living cell produce virus particles instead of cell parts. These particles can assemble into more viruses and then they break out of the cell (killing it) and begin the process again. They cannot make more viruses on their own. Only living cell reproduce on their own.
What else can I help you with?
True or false the shape of the proteins allows the virus's coat to attach to only certain cells in the host?
True
Is this true or false the shape of the proteins allows the virus s coat to attched to only certain cells in the host?
true
Can a virus have cells?
No, a virus cannot have cells.
The shape of the proteins allows the virus's coat to attach to only certain cells in the host?
true
Is a virus made up of a cell or cells?
No, a virus is not made up of cells. It is a small infectious agent that can only replicate inside the cells of living organisms.
What is regarded as the powerhouse of the cells?
Mitochondria
What is the first event that occurred when a virus infects the host cell?
The virus attaches to the host cells membrane.
A Virus Has No Outer Membrane Is it a cell?
Virus have no cells
Each virus can enter only a few types of cells in a few specific species true or false?
I believe it's false!!
What Are not made up of cells they also do not carry out all life processes many biologists do not coonsider them true living things?
Virus.
Can viruses break into body cells to reproduce?
Viruses first much attach to the host cell, they then must be adsorbed by way of special sites that recognize the virus. After adsorption, penetration occurs and the virus is taken into the cell. It uncoates and begins the process of synthesis of its' own genetic materials and proteins. The next step is maturation or assembly of the virus into its' mature form. The virus fills the cell and begins to leave by "budding". It begins the cycle again by infecting more cells.
Can you find cells in a virus?
You would not find any cells inside a virus. A virus is a small infectious particle and is actually much smaller than most cells. You will find either DNA or RNA in a virus, but never both.
