What else can I help you with?
What pathogen that is made of nucleic acid either rna or DNA surrounded by protein?
A virus is a pathogen made of nucleic acid (either RNA or DNA) surrounded by a protein coat. The nucleic acid contains the genetic material needed for the virus to replicate inside a host cell.
What does the virus nucleic acid do?
Stores the virus' program code that tells how to do everything the virus needs to do.
What is a microscopic agent which is not cellular and is composed of nucleic acid surrounded by a protein coat?
A virus is a microscopic agent that is not cellular and is composed of nucleic acid surrounded by a protein coat.
Which component of a virus is lacking in a cell?
Both a living cell and a virus contain nucleic acid. The virus has a capsid, whereas a living cell does not.
How could many cells contain copies of the nucleic acid from one virus?
The cells could have all been produced via asexual reproduction from a single virus cell, or have been rroduced for by normal reproduction. In this sense, the daughter cells would contain the same nucleic aid, as they come from the same virus cell.
The nucleic acid core of a virus contains?
ribose
What is the nucleic acid core in a virus called?
the "core" of a virus is the nucleic acid (either DNA or RNA) that makes up the viral genome. this core contains all the genetic information of that virus, and is enclosed within the protein coat known as the capsid.

Stores the virus' program code that tells how to do everything the virus needs to do.
What are the two main parts of a virues?
The two main parts of a virus are Protein Coat and Nucleic Acid. The protein coat completely surrounds the nucleic acid and serves as a protective coating and aids in attachment of the the virus to the host cell. The nucleic acid can be either Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) or Ribonucleic Acid (RNA).
What is a biological particle composed of a nucleic acid core and a protein cover called?
If it consists only of these two components it is a virus.
What is a virus biologically active particle composed of?
Protein and nucleic acid.
What describes virus?
A microscopic thing with a nucleic acid code-apex
Which best describes a virus?
A microscopic thing with a nucleic acid code :)
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.
