The virus uses the lytic cycle to make copies of itself. In this cycle, the virus infects a host cell, hijacks the cell's machinery to replicate its genetic material and produce viral proteins, and ultimately assembles new virus particles. These new viruses then burst out of the host cell, often destroying it in the process, and can go on to infect other cells.
What else can I help you with?
Type of infection in which a host cell makes copies of the virus indefintely?
The Lysogenic Cycle. The virus' DNA will integrate itself into the host cell's own DNA, such that the cell will continue to make copies of the virus for as long as it survives (and if it passes down its DNA to daughter cells).
What is the only life function that a virus carries out?
A virus carries out the function of replication, by hijacking the host cell's machinery to make copies of itself.
What is an infection in which a virus makes copies of itself and causes the host cell to burst called?
I believe it is called the Ly-tic cycle. The virus attaches itself to a cell and injects DNA. The viral DNA enters the Lytic cycle and new viruses are made. The cell then breaks open and viruses are released. I believe AIDS is such a virus.
The viral reproductive cycle in which a virus infects a cell nakes many copies of itself and destroys the cell is the what?
The viral reproductive cycle you are referring to is called the lytic cycle. In this cycle, a virus infects a host cell, hijacks the cell's machinery to replicate its genetic material and produce new viral particles, and ultimately causes the cell to burst (lyse), releasing the newly formed viruses to infect other cells. This process results in the destruction of the host cell.
What is which in a cell a virus multiplies itself?
The process in which a virus multiplies itself within a host cell is called replication. During replication, the virus uses the host cell's machinery to create copies of its own genetic material and proteins, eventually leading to the production of new virus particles that can infect other cells.
When a virus infects a cell what does it produce?
more copies of itself
What is the difference between a active virus and a hidden virus?
The " hidden " virus is called a provirus and it insets it's genetic material into the genome of the invaded cell so that the cell copies itself many times and copies the virus also. An active virus just invades and hijacks the cell immediately to reproduce the virus. The " hidden " type of virus does come out after a time and acts like a active virus then Google lytic cycle and lysoginy.
Does SARS go through a lytic or a lysogenic cycle?
The virus that causes AIDS, HIV, is lytic in nature. Once it attaches itself into a host cell, it will go about integrating its genetic material into the host cell and use its machinery to force the cell to make copies of the virus. Additionally, the viral cell will kill the host cell in the process.
In what cycle of the viral replication does the virus the host cell?
During the cycle of viral shedding, the virus has made copies of itself and the host cell is no longer useful. The host cell then dies, and the new virus cells then must find a new host.
What is the virut virus?
It's a virus which copies itself into new files every time a file containing it is opened.
Why is it necessary for a virus to invade a living cell to make copies of itself?
Since viruses are nonliving they have to invade and hijack a living cells DNA to make more copies of itself. If it cannot do this it cannot make more copies of itself.
What small DNA strand makes a copy of itself?
A virus is a small strand of DNA or RNA that copies itself.
In what cycle of viral replication does the virus destroy the host cell?
During the cycle of viral shedding, the virus has made copies of itself and the host cell is no longer useful. The host cell then dies, and the new virus cells then must find a new host.
Type of infection in which a host cell makes copies of the virus indefintely?
The Lysogenic Cycle. The virus' DNA will integrate itself into the host cell's own DNA, such that the cell will continue to make copies of the virus for as long as it survives (and if it passes down its DNA to daughter cells).
How does a virus multiplied?
A virus injects its DNA into the host cell making it produce multiple copies of that DNA and multiple copies of the protein capsule of that virus. After a while, the host cell becomes full of many copies of that virus, then the host cell explodes releasing all the new viruses. If the host cell is a bacterium and the the virus is a bacterophage, this phenomenon is done in two ways either by the lytic cycle in which virus DNA survives and the bacterial cell is destroyed,or the lysogenic cycle in which virus DNA is incorporated in the host cell DNA.
Why is HIV considered to be the most variable virus known?
Because of its multiple patterns of copies of itself
What are two ways a virus can enter a host cell?
Viruses can cause lytic infections or lysogenic infections. When a virus enters a cell to make copies of itself, causing the cell to rupture, that is called a lytic infection. A lysogenic infection is where a virus incorporates itself into the DNA of the cell it invades and replicates its genetic code.
