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 stage DNA replicate?
S Phase of Interphase
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 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.
How does the cell replicate DNA?
Cells do not replicate "In DNA". Cells replicate their DNA during the process of cell division.
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.
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
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
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.

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.
Is Hepatitis B RNA or DNA?
HCV is an enveloped single-strand RNA virus in the flavivirus family.
