Viruses (biological)

A virus is a small infectious agent that can replicate only inside the living cells of organisms. Viruses display a wide diversity of shapes and sizes, called morphologies. Generally viruses are much smaller than bacteria. Most viruses that have been studied have a diameter between 10 and 300 nanometres.

What is a non-retroviral virus?

Retroviruses are a class of RNA virus that use Reverse transcription to convert their RNA to DNA for their infection.

Does a virus have a lysosome?

No, viruses do not have lysosomes. Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles found in eukaryotic cells that contain enzymes for digestion and waste removal. Viruses lack cellular structure and organelles and rely on host cells to provide the necessary machinery for replication.

How can I avoid getting the flu when my brother has it?

By not going too close and frequent hand washing on both parts. See also the related questions below.

Most commoc victim rabies preys upon?

Animals like Raccoons, Skunks, Foxes, Coyotes, Bats, and Ground Hogs

What is rona virus?

Assuming that you mean Coronavirus, it is a type of enveloped virus that resembles a halo under a miscrope. It can cause diseases such as pneumonia and the common cold.

When you have a fever can you pass the flu by kissing?

Yes, it would be the most likely time you are able to infect others, and it will be one of the most direct methods of passing the flu virus to someone else. Save the kissing until you are fever free for more than 24 hours straight without taking any anti-fever medicines (like Tylenol or Ibuprofen).

Are viruses are involved in bioremediation?

not at all. some virus destruct algal blooms but nothing else is known yet.

Can you catch a cold when you have symptoms or is it only contagious when you are in incubation period before you start sneezing and feeling ill?

The common cold is the most common human disease. Well over 200 viruses are implicated in the cause. Rhinovirus caused colds are most infectious during the first three days of symptoms. A person with the symptoms has already caught the cold. The time before the infection begins and when the symptoms show is between 1-3 days. It is a matter of discussion whether or not a person who doesn't show signs and symptoms of a cold are contiguous. The reason for the lack of information is due to the cost of looking into this.

What is the similarities in temperate and virulent viruses?

They both require a host cell to reproduce and they are both types of viruses

How is the replication cycle of pox compare to the herpes virsus?

The pox virus is a lytic virus in that it kills the cell within 12 hours. The herpes virus can be both lytic and lysogenic (hidden).

How long can throat viruses last?

About 1 week. Symptoms can last for 2-5 days. Best way to treat is a tablespoon of honey and 2 teaspoons of lemon juice. Strep is similar.

Does a virus use ATP?

no, that is supplied by the infected cell.

Do viruses adapt and evolve?

Viruses can adapt to a living organism, but when not evolve. It can change the way it reacts which organisms over time, but not even in a million years, it will change into something else by evolving.

When did Robert Koch find pathogen?

Robert Koch is associated with Koch's postulates, which must be satisfied before it can be accepted that particular bacteria cause particular diseases. He was first published in 1876. He did his first work with Anthrax. Later he developed methods using media like potatoes and later with Petri used what is still being used to grow bacteria, Petri dishes.

What virus reproduces in a bacterium?

Bacteriophages (bacteria eaters) are produced by bacteria. Since viruses cannot reproduce on their own, they have to take over the DNA of bacteria to make more of themselves.

What is the structure of the SARS virus?

The structure of the SARS virus consists of an orb completely covered by appendages that look strangely like ice-cream cones with a scoop of ice cream on top. See the related link for a drawing.

Who called rabies rabies?

Rabies was named by King Albert Charles Rabies The Fourth. King Rabies was the king of Marangalitace in 1500-1501, he unfortunatey died of rabies.

You may of heard of Marangalitace, it is located in Shermars, in Portugal. They are normally represented by a llama. Most of the people in Marangalitace dye there llamas pink to celebrate King Rabies on the 4th July every year.

Be careful of rabies, to save yourself from rabies always; Wash your hands with soap, wear a condom and bathe in chicken or llama or dragon fat juices.

What is the antigen that causes Ebola?

The Ebola disease is caused by one of four ebola variants, BDBV, EBOV, SUDV or TAFV. They all come from the same place, however; Congo. Where the first Ebola virus was first found.

How do chrysene affect the human body?

The effect of chrysene to the skin is permanent pigmentation. Contact to this will irritate the eyes and if inhaled, will irritate the nose and throat.

How does malaria stain for gram and endospore and capsule and acid fast?

Gram staining protozoans yield variable results. Endospore, capsule, and AF stains will yield different results, as these stains are use on bacteria. Malaria is caused by a protozoan.

What is a host cell?

Virus live inside "host cells"of living creatures. There is an attraction of certain types of virus to certain cells. This is why cold virus "likes" lung tissue and sinus. Or herpes likes human lips and sexual skin tissue. It is attracted based on the nature of the virus and the types of proteins and enzymes in the cell.

HPV also is attracted to sexual tissues and reproductive cells and causes cancer as it constantly disrupts these cells and mutates them. HPV also causes fetal mutations, throat cancer and anal cancer in people who have unprotected anal sex.

All of these human tissues are hosts to specific viral infections. Viral infections are the number one cause of genetic diseases in humans according to PubMed research Any virus that can cause cancer can cause permanent fetal mutations that can kill the baby or if it lives to reproduce becomes the source of a new genetic diseases. We now have 17000 known genetic diseases from mutations. There are over 98000 ERV's found encrypted in the human sexual reproductive region of DNA.

HIV is has its entry point in the CCR5 protein of an immune cell. It is attracted to it naturally.

Humans have created most of these viruses by their activities to spread an mutate them amongst humans through sexual activities, and by cultivating meat in "foods" like pigs, chickens, ducks, and other creatures that can pass human viruses into their bodies that have similar host cells to humans. Once these virus enter into a host pig or chicken they mutate based on the effects of the pig's or chicken's (or host animal's) immune system trying to kill it. This is what causes these mutants that survive and then are transferred back into humans.

All of this is well documented in medical research into diseases.

There are some virus that help inside the human body and are good for us and we should leave those alone.

The ones we transmit sexually they are all bad for human life (non of those are good for human life and are destructive when they enter into a human reproductive egg, sperm or fertilized zygote) or back and forth from animal cultivation. Animal mutated virus was the cause of the swine flu of 1914 that killed 50,000,000 people.

People seem to like to eat meat, even if it causes viral mutations, that cause genetic (mutations) diseases and pandemics in our species. It is not just from eating the meat, but it is the human interaction with these species touching and breathing and sneezing in the same area that transfers the viruses back and forth.

There are ways to work with dairy cattle and not pass virus to them or to get their virus back at us. Small pox was one of those mutant viruses. It was the first virus that we found a vaccine for by using a dead cowpox virus and injecting it in people to immunize them.

Most of the above about meat has no basis in fact and are just "beliefs". A host cell is one that a virus or microbe needs to help them replicate. Viruses are "hijackers" of living cells. They take over the host DNA so that the host DNA will make virus particles instead of host proteins. They fill the host cell with these particles and then kill the host cell by breaking out to find more cells to infect.
