How do viruses affect cells and bacteria?

viruses latch onto a host cell and injects its own DNA into it, this DNA controls the cell and makes it produce more viruses inside the cell, when these are ready the burst out of the host cell killing it, and land on another cell


Are most viruses species specific?

Yes, the majority of viruses are very species specific. There are exceptions however, such as rabies. Most viruses will not survive for long beyond their host tissue environment.


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


Can viruses can only cause disease?

Viruses can affect animals, and some viruses can affect plants.


Why do viruses typically affect only one or a few species?

Viruses attack animals, plants, fungi, protists, and bacteria. Some viruses can infect only specific kinds of cells. For instance, many viruses, such as the potato leaf-roll virus, are limited to one host species or to one type of tissue within that species. A few viruses affect a broad range of hosts. An example of this is the rabies virus. Rabies can infect humans and many other animal hosts.


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.

What is active viruses?

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.


How do viruses affect your DNA?

Viruses can insert their genetic material into a host cell's DNA, causing mutations or alterations in the DNA sequence. This can disrupt normal cellular processes, leading to diseases or potential long-term effects on the host's genetic material.
