It all depends on the virus. It may be a lytic or a lysogenic infection. In a lytic infection, the virus inserts its DNA into host cell and replicate itself until the cell bursts and releases the new copies to infect other host cells. In a lysogenic infection, the virus inserts its DNA and gains control over the host cell, shutting it down and makes copies of itself like lytic infection, but the host cell does not burst.
What else can I help you with?
Is an hcv rna virus or DNA virus?
It is an RNA virus, part of the Flavi family, and Hepaci genus
How does an active virus multiply?
Once inside a cell, a virus's genetic material takes over of the cell's functions. It instructs the cell to produce the virus's proteins and genetic material. These proteins and genetic material then assemble into new viruses.
What is protein covered genetic material?
Protein covered genetic material refers to the structure of a virus, where the genetic material (RNA or DNA) is surrounded by a protein coat called a capsid. This capsid protects the viral genetic material and helps the virus infect host cells.
What is the function of virus head?
The virus head is responsible for protecting and encapsulating the genetic material of the virus, such as DNA or RNA. It helps the virus attach to host cells and inject its genetic material to initiate the infection process. The head also plays a role in facilitating the release of the genetic material into the host cell for replication.
How Has a protein coat and genetic material?
A protein coat, or capsid, encases the genetic material of a virus, providing protection and stability. This structure is essential for the virus's ability to infect host cells, as it facilitates the attachment and entry of the viral genome into the host. The genetic material, which can be either DNA or RNA, carries the instructions necessary for the virus to replicate and produce new virus particles. Together, the protein coat and genetic material enable the virus to survive outside a host and propagate during infections.
Where is the genetic material of the virus located?
The genetic material of a virus is located inside its capsid.
What is a virus that stores its genetic material as RNA called?
A virus that stores its genetic material as RNA is called a RETROVIRUS
The genetic material of a virus is found in its .?
The genetic material of a virus is found in the capsid.
Where is the genetic materials of a virus located?
The genetic material of a virus is located inside its capsid.
What are the two parts does every virus have?
Every virus has two main parts: a protein coat called capsid that surrounds and protects the genetic material, and the genetic material itself which can be DNA or RNA. The genetic material contains the instructions needed for the virus to replicate and infect host cells.
What is the dormant state of a virus called?
The lysogenic cycle. This is when the virus incorporates its genetic material into the hosts genetic material and becomes what is called a provirus.
What two things does every virus have?
Every virus has genetic material (DNA or RNA) and a protein coat (capsid) that protects the genetic material.
What is a DNA virus?
A DNA virus has only DNA as its genetic material.
Where is the genetic material of a virus found?
Its nucleus.
What is the genetic material in the center of a virus?
nucleus
What is the function of the inner core of a virus?
The inner core contains genetic makeup that creats new viruses.
Virus that have RNA as their genetic material are known as?
retroviruses
