Can a virus have a host?
Viruses do not cause diseases in the host. Why? Well, the host is already causing the virus so it is IMPOSSIBLE for another virus to be cause in the host.
What are the differences between viruses and bacteria?
Bacteria: Bacteria can be killed by antibiotics. Bacteria is larger. Bacteria can reproduce from the life cycle. Viruses: Viruses cant be killed by antibiotics. Viruses are smaller than bacteria. Viruses cant reproduce without help from a host cell or organism.
Why it is difficult to treat diseases caused by viruses?
This is because viruses multiply rapidly . Faster than any other micro-organism . Also, viruses need a host to live .They are non living when not on a host . To estimate their characteristics is hard because they are living and non living .
Viruses make the host cell produce new viruses which kills th host cell?
Yes, viruses hijack the host cell's machinery to replicate themselves, eventually causing the cell to burst and release new viruses. This process, known as lysis, results in the death of the host cell.
Do Most DNA viruses multiply in the host cell's cell membrane?
No, DNA viruses multiply in the host cell's nucleus, while most RNA viruses multiply in the host cell's cytoplasm
Why does a virus need the host cell?
Viruses do not have the capability to reproduce. They are simply a strand of DNA or RNA, inside a protein coat. They infect a host cell and hijack the host cell's reproductive faculty, creating more viruses.
Why can't viruses reproduce out of they're host organism?
Picture the host as the viruses brain and heart.. Once the virus leaves the host it dies. In other words the host gives it life.
How are bacteria different from viruses?
viruses are not alive. APEX
What provides the energy for viruses?

What to viruses reproduce?
a host Cell
What is active viruses?
when a virus enters a cell and is active, it cause the host cell to make new viruses, which destroy the host cell.
Why does viruses act like a parasite and find a host cell?
Viruses need a host cell to replicate and multiply because they lack the cellular machinery for these processes. By hijacking the host cell's machinery, viruses can produce more viral particles and continue their infectious cycle. This allows viruses to thrive and spread within a host organism.
