Are viruses able to infect all cell?
No, viruses cannot infect all cells; they are specific to certain host organisms and cell types. Each virus has a specific set of host cells it can infect, determined by the presence of compatible receptors on the cell surface and the virus's mechanisms for entering the cell. This specificity means that while some viruses can infect a wide range of species, others are restricted to a particular host or cell type.
What is the flow of genetic information used by retroviruses for AIDS?
Retroviruses like HIV use RNA as their genetic material. When they infect a host cell, they convert their RNA into DNA using an enzyme called reverse transcriptase. This DNA is then integrated into the host cell's genome, allowing the virus to hijack the cell's machinery to replicate itself.
Do viruses absorb?
No, they basicaly infect a cell with the insides of the virus
What organisms do aids infect usually?
HIV infects only humans. There are similar viruses that affect other species.
Which organelles aids in digestion of worn out cell parts?
lysosomes
Do teens have aids?
Teens can be infect with HIV, which leads to AIDS.
Does aids infect the excretory system?
NO
What did Jenner infect people with?
AIDs and HIV
What is a type of infection in which the host cell bursts and is destroyed?
A type of infection where the host cell bursts and is destroyed is known as a lytic infection. This process is commonly associated with viruses that infect bacteria, known as bacteriophages, where they replicate inside the host cell until it bursts, releasing new viral particles to infect other cells.
Does a woman with AIDS have much HIV virus?
Yes; a person with AIDS can infect a sexual partner with the HIV if proper precautions are not taken.
Woman giving head simultaniously to two guys at the same time Can his semen touching your penis during her giving oral infect you with aids Or does her saliva kill the virus if the other guy is infect?
saliva does not kill an aids virus.
What is the difference between AIDS and HIV?
The difference between HIV and AIDS is that HIV is the virus that causes the disease AIDS. You can be a carrier of the HIV virus and not contract the disease but you can infect others.
Can father infect baby with AIDS if mother does not have it?
Yes, it's possible. but fairly unlikely.
What is the main goal of AIDS virus?
To burn through its victims and infect as many as possible.
What is the function of the end plate in a virus?
The end plate in a virus helps in recognizing and binding to specific host cell receptors, allowing the virus to infect the host cell. It also aids in the release of the viral genetic material into the host cell during the infection process.
What is a nucleic acid coated with a protein?
A viral nucleic acid coated with a protein is called a capsid. The capsid helps protect the nucleic acid and aids in the virus's ability to infect a host cell.
