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 a pathogen that is made of nucleic acid either RNA or DNA surrounded by protein?
Viruses are pathogens made from RNA or DNA and are encapsulated in a protein shell.
2 parts of a virus?
Genetic material (DNA or RNA): Viruses contain either DNA or RNA as their genetic material, which carries instructions for their replication inside host cells. Protein coat (capsid): Viruses have a protein coat called a capsid that surrounds and protects their genetic material, helping them to infect host cells and replicate.
Why was that bacteriophage an excellent choice for research to determine whether genes are made of DNA or protein?
because it is a simple phage, DNA surrounded by a protein coat
What pathogen is a packet of proteins with no RNA or DNA?
A prion is a pathogen that consists solely of proteins and lacks both RNA and DNA. Prions are known to cause degenerative neurological diseases in animals and humans by inducing normal proteins to misfold and aggregate, leading to cellular damage.

What are two functions of a virsus's protein coat?
Dna,rna
What makes up bacteriophage?
DNA and RNA core and a protein coat.
What composes a virus?
a core of DNA or RNA surrounded by a protein coat

Viruses consist of a protein coat around?
A plasmid (loop) of DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) and an assortment of enzymes and viral proteins.
What is the structure of typical virus?
a typical virus has a core of DNA or RNA and a protein coat
How does a DNA vaccine prevent future disease?
A DNA vaccine contains DNA from a pathogen but cannot cause disease. When the vaccine is injected into a patient, the DNA directs the synthesis of a protein. Antibodies are produced by the body against the protein. If the patient contracts the disease in the future, the antibodies in his or her body will be able to provide protection.
