Viruses are injected into host cells primarily through a process called viral entry, which can occur via various mechanisms. For many viruses, this involves binding to specific receptors on the host cell's surface, followed by fusion of the viral envelope with the cell membrane or endocytosis. Once inside, the viral genetic material is released into the host cell, allowing it to hijack the cell's machinery to replicate and produce new viral particles. This process can vary significantly among different types of viruses.
What else can I help you with?
Why are viruses difficult to target therapeutically?
Viruses use their host's metabolic enzymes and some viruses mutate very quickly so they can easily become resistant to drugs. Viruses are almost biologically inert until they infect a cell.
Are the microbes that are injected in a vaccination dead or alive?
They can be either. Some vaccines are made with dead viruses or particles of viruses and other vaccines are made with attenuated (weakened) viruses that are not able to make an otherwise healthy person sick. In 2009 the swine flu vaccine approved for use in the US was prepared both ways, the nasal flu vaccine was made from attenuated viruses and the shots were made with dead viruses.
Is hydrogen bond a biologically weak bond?
Biologically, hydrogen bonds are considered to be strong intermolecular forces.
Is Alyce LaViolette biologically a female?
I have wondered about that.
Are viruses living or non-living things and why?
Viruses are considered non-living because they do not meet all the criteria for life. While they can replicate and evolve, they lack cellular structure, the ability to metabolize nutrients, and cannot reproduce on their own. Viruses depend on host cells to replicate and carry out their life cycle.

What is a bioaerosol?
A bioaerosol is an aerosol containing biologically active bacteria, spores, viruses and toxins, and other similar material.
If RNA extracted from a virus was injected into a host cell the cell will not begin to make new viruses.?
If RNA extracted from a virus is injected into a host cell, the cell may begin to produce new viruses, provided the RNA is infectious and the host cell has the necessary machinery to translate and replicate the viral RNA. For many RNA viruses, the injected RNA can serve as a template for translation into viral proteins and for replication of new viral genomes. However, if the RNA is non-infectious or lacks necessary elements for translation and replication, the host cell will not produce new viruses.
What do you call a substances that contains weakened bacteria or viruses that is injected to produce immunity to a disease?
These substances are called "vaccines".
Why viruses are regarded as being biologically important?
Viruses are biologically important because they can infect all forms of life, shaping ecosystems and influencing evolutionary processes. They play a role in nutrient cycling by infecting bacteria and plankton in the ocean. Additionally, they have been used in research and biotechnology to study basic biological processes and develop tools like gene therapy vectors.
What does Augmentation therapy do?
Replacement AAT (Prolastin), derived from human blood which has been screened for viruses, is injected weekly or bimonthly for life

Why virus are regarded as being biologically important?
Viruses are biologically important because they can infect all forms of life, including bacteria, plants, and animals, and play a key role in shaping ecosystems. They also contribute to genetic diversity through processes like horizontal gene transfer, and are crucial for understanding how cells function and evolve. Additionally, viruses have been instrumental in molecular biology research and in the development of biotechnologies.
Can you Explain the live virus in vaccines?
Vaccines are small amounts of live viruses injected into the body. These viruses teach the body's immune system how to fight off the disease. Correction: Some viruses are live. Some are weakened, most flu vaccines are dead viruses, not live, although the nasal mist is a live, weakened virus. Please make sure your answers are correct.
How are humans organized biologically?
How are humans organized biologically?
Do roaches cause any harm to humans?
Not directly (has in biting, stinging, etc), but they can biologically. Roaches tend to carry viruses and diseases around, and if they land on you (which, they can fly, depending on type) or crawl on you, they might pass it on to you.
How do you use biologically in a sentence?
I biologically created a new medicine
