What genetic material is in both viruses and bacteria?
Both viruses and bacteria contain genetic material in the form of DNA or RNA. Viruses can have either DNA or RNA as their genetic material, while bacteria typically have DNA as their genetic material.
Why does influenza have RNA?
Influenza is an RNA virus because its genetic material is made up of RNA. RNA viruses like influenza are able to mutate more rapidly than DNA viruses, which contributes to the virus's ability to evolve quickly and evade host immunity.
What are two types of virisus?
Two types of viruses are DNA viruses, which have genetic material made of DNA, and RNA viruses, which have genetic material made of RNA. DNA viruses typically replicate in the host cell's nucleus, while RNA viruses typically replicate in the host cell's cytoplasm.
Does Virus contain both DNA and RNA?
Viruses can contain either DNA or RNA, but not both. DNA viruses have genetic material made of DNA, while RNA viruses have genetic material made of RNA. Some viruses have single-stranded genetic material, while others have double-stranded genetic material.
What are viruses genetic materia?
Viruses contain either DNA or RNA.
How does viruses classificate?
DNA and RNA viruses.
What is the difference between DNA viruses and RNA viruses?
There are several differences for example; most DNA viruses use the DNA polymerases of of the host cell to synthesize new genomes along the templates provided by the viral DNA, in contrast to replicate their genomes, RNA viruses use virally encoded polymerases that can use RNA as a template. RNA viruses usually retain their RNA within capsids, whilst DNA viruses are less "packaged" usually retained within say a head, or a capsomere. The main difference of course, is that DNA viruses contain either a doubled stranded DNA (dsDNA) or a single stranded (ssDNA), and RNA viruses contain dsRNA or ssRNA. There are of course several other differences, but these are the ones I know of.
What genetic material is in both viruses and bacteria?
Both viruses and bacteria contain genetic material in the form of DNA or RNA. Viruses can have either DNA or RNA as their genetic material, while bacteria typically have DNA as their genetic material.
Do some viruses have rna rather than DNA?
Yes, that is correct - some viruses have RNA, others DNA.
Is the genetic material in viruses double stranded DNA or RNA?
The genetic material in viruses can be either double-stranded DNA or RNA.
Why does influenza have RNA?
Influenza is an RNA virus because its genetic material is made up of RNA. RNA viruses like influenza are able to mutate more rapidly than DNA viruses, which contributes to the virus's ability to evolve quickly and evade host immunity.

Two types of viruses are DNA viruses, which have genetic material made of DNA, and RNA viruses, which have genetic material made of RNA. DNA viruses typically replicate in the host cell's nucleus, while RNA viruses typically replicate in the host cell's cytoplasm.
What viruses have Rna in their core rather than Dna?
They are called Rna viruses. Rna retro-viruses are a different and somewhat more complex matter.
What are the two types of nucleic acids viruses may have?
Viruses can have either DNA or RNA (a virus will never have both at the same time, although some viruses can have each one separately at different stages of their life cycles). RNA viruses are much more common than DNA viruses.
What may contain DNA or RNA but not both?
Viruses can contain either DNA or RNA, but not both. However, some viruses may have both DNA and RNA at different stages of their replication cycle.
Does Virus contain both DNA and RNA?
Viruses can contain either DNA or RNA, but not both. DNA viruses have genetic material made of DNA, while RNA viruses have genetic material made of RNA. Some viruses have single-stranded genetic material, while others have double-stranded genetic material.
Does viruses contain RNA?
Some viruses contain RNA; these are known as retroviruses. Others contain DNA.
