Viruses like HIV that convert RNA into DNA are called retroviruses. They utilize an enzyme called reverse transcriptase to transcribe their RNA genome into DNA, which can then integrate into the host's genome. This ability to reverse the usual flow of genetic information distinguishes them from other types of viruses.

What is a naked virus?
A naked virus is a type of virus that lacks an envelope, which is a lipid membrane that surrounds some viruses. Instead, naked viruses consist only of a protein coat called a capsid that encases their genetic material. This structural simplicity makes them generally more resistant to environmental factors like heat and detergents. Common examples of naked viruses include the adenovirus and the poliovirus.
Is it true that viruses have complex membranes that control what moves in and out of their cells?
Viruses do not have complex membranes like eukaryotic organisms have. Viruses also do not have cells, nor are they technically living organisms. There is no need for viruses to control the movement of material in and out of the viral particles.
Does viruses have chloroplasts?
No, viruses do not have chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are organelles found in plant cells that are responsible for photosynthesis. Viruses are not living organisms and do not have cellular structures like chloroplasts.
