1. A virus attaches to a bacterium.

2. The virus injects its genetic material.

3. The genetic material of the virus combines with the bacterium's genetic material.

4. The virus's genetic material detaches from the bacterium's genetic material and the bacterium produces the virus's proteins and genetic material.

5. New viruses assemble.

6. The bacterium bursts open, releasing new viruses.

No, DNA viruses multiply in the host cell's nucleus, while most RNA viruses multiply in the host cell's cytoplasm


What are types of hidden and active viruses?

Hidden viruses include rootkits, bootkits, and stealth viruses that hide their presence on a system to evade detection. Active viruses include file infectors, macro viruses, and polymorphic viruses that infect files or use different code patterns to avoid detection.

What are viruses hidden in?

Cells, they reproduce by invading a cell and using its functions to make more viruses, eventually killing a cell. That's why viruses are bad, and that where they "hide".

How do viruses stay hidden?

Viruses can stay hidden by mutating frequently to avoid detection by the immune system. Some viruses can also enter a dormant state within host cells, making them hard to detect and target for treatment. Additionally, viruses can evade the immune response by altering their surface proteins to avoid recognition by antibodies.


Do Active viruses enter a cell and immediatley begin to multiply?

The easiest way to understand how viruses replicate is to study the life cycles of viruses called bacteriophages (bacteria eaters). Bacteriophages replicate by either a lytic cycle or a lysogenic cycle. The difference in these two cycles is that the cell dies at the end of the lytic cycle or the cell remains in the lysogenic cycle. The virus remains "hidden".


Why are viruses considered?

they are able to multiply, which could be seen as a form of reproduction
