Viruses do not "feed" in the traditional sense, as they lack the cellular machinery to metabolize nutrients. Instead, they hijack the host's cellular mechanisms to replicate themselves. Once a virus enters a human cell, it uses the host's resources, such as proteins and nucleotides, to produce new viral particles, ultimately leading to the cell's death or dysfunction. This process allows the virus to spread and infect other cells.

How do viruses differ from cells in organelles?
There are no cells in organelles, organelles make up cells. Vira are different from organelles in that a virus has three basic features: a shell that serves as a body, mobility structures that help it latch on to something, and a DNA or RNA vector that they feed to the nucleus of a host cell.
Can bedbugs live inside the human body?
No, they live in our houses. Only once in a while, when they are hungry, they will go for a human body to suck blood.
Do silkworms get into your body?
It is very unlikely. Silkworms feed on the leaves of mulberry trees, so there is nothing in the human body which would sustain them.
What part of the host do bacteria and viruses eat?

How does viral organism relate in terms of feeding?
Viruses do not feed, they have no metabolism.
What do lice feed on?

What is the difference between bed bugs and lice?
Bed bugs are small insects that feed on blood and typically live in bedding and furniture, while lice are tiny parasites that live on the scalp and feed on blood. Bed bugs can cause itchy bites and infestations in homes, while lice are mainly found on the human body and can spread easily through close contact.
How do minerals help us understand earth historical developments?
minerals help feed plants and organisms and they power our human body
What is the mode of nutrition in viruses?
parasitic mode of nutrition
What are two modifications tapeworms have staying in your intestine?

What type of food is best to feed a chicken?
