An enveloped virus typically replicates its DNA inside the host cell's nucleus. After the virus enters the cell, it releases its genetic material, which is then transported to the nucleus where it can utilize the host's machinery for replication and transcription. The newly synthesized viral components are then assembled in the cytoplasm before being released from the cell.

Is T4 bacteriophage a DNA or RNA virus?
T4 bacteriophage is a DNA virus. It infects bacteria by injecting its DNA into the host cell and hijacking the cell's machinery to replicate its genetic material.
When an enveloped virus adsorbs to the host cell with its protein spikes the virions are taken into the cell by the process of?
endocytosis. The envelope of the virus fuses with the host cell membrane, releasing the viral genetic material into the cell. This process allows the virus to hijack the cellular machinery to replicate and spread.
What is a enveloped virus?
Viruses are composed of two main parts: an outer protein covering called a capsid and an inside core of either DNA or RNA. Not both DNA and RNA. Some of these have an envelope over the capsid. Some enveloped viruses include norovirus (stomach bug), rotavirus and human papillomavirus (HPV). The envelope can be damaged by freezing temperatures, chlorine, and phenol. If damaged the virus cannot infect.
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 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.
Where does a virus replicate its DNA?
A virus replicates its DNA in a cell when it infects the host
Is chickenpox virus a DNA or RNA virus?
The virus that causes chickenpox, known as varicella zoster virus or VZV, is closely related to the herpes viruses and is an enveloped, double-stranded DNA virus
What is a charectristic of a virus?
All viruses are sharing a common feature that their genetic material DNA or RNA in packed in a protein coat capsid. Enveloped viruses may contain glycoproteins on their envelope (eg:HIV). Virus can not replicate or reproduce themselves, they need to infect their host and integrate their genome into the host for its replication.
Is T4 bacteriophage a DNA or RNA virus?
T4 bacteriophage is a DNA virus. It infects bacteria by injecting its DNA into the host cell and hijacking the cell's machinery to replicate its genetic material.
What tern describes a virus?
A virus is often described as an "obligate intracellular parasite" because it can only replicate inside the living cells of a host organism. Unlike living cells, viruses lack the cellular machinery necessary for metabolism and reproduction, relying entirely on their host's cellular processes to propagate. Additionally, viruses can be classified based on their structure, such as enveloped or non-enveloped, and their genetic material, which can be either DNA or RNA.
What is a reterovirus?
A retrovirus is an RNA virus that is replicated in a host cell via the enzyme reverse transcriptase to produce DNA from its RNA genome. The DNA is then incorporated into the host's genome by an integrase enzyme. The virus thereafter replicates as part of the host cell's DNA. Retroviruses are enveloped viruses that belong to the viral family Retrovirida.
Do measles have DNA?
No, measles virus does not have DNA; it is an RNA virus. Specifically, it belongs to the paramyxovirus family and contains a single-stranded RNA genome. Unlike DNA viruses, RNA viruses replicate differently within host cells, using their RNA to produce proteins and replicate their genetic material.
A virus is made of DNA and a?
A virus is made of DNA or RNA (never both) covered by a protein capsule called a capsid which may also be covered an envelope of more protein, carbohydrates (sugar) or lipids(fat). The different coatings allow the virus to trick the cell it is attacking to let the virus inside. This is why non-enveloped viruses are easy for the body to destroy and enveloped viruses are hard to recognize and destroy
What is andenovirus?
A non-enveloped icosahedral DNA virus commonly causing gastroenteritis. It is the second most common cause of viral gastro, second to the rotavirus.
How does the cell replicate DNA?
Cells do not replicate "In DNA". Cells replicate their DNA during the process of cell division.
When an enveloped virus adsorbs to the host cell with its protein spikes the virions are taken into the cell by the process of?
endocytosis. The envelope of the virus fuses with the host cell membrane, releasing the viral genetic material into the cell. This process allows the virus to hijack the cellular machinery to replicate and spread.
How millions of T4 lymphocytes get infected with the virus if only 1 gets into the body?
The Strand of genes is inserted into the cells DNA. This causes the cells to replicate the virus
