A virus is made of DNA or RNA (never both) covered by a protein capsule called a capsid which may also be covered an envelope of more protein, carbohydrates (sugar) or lipids(fat).
The different coatings allow the virus to trick the cell it is attacking to let the virus inside. This is why non-enveloped viruses are easy for the body to destroy and enveloped viruses are hard to recognize and destroy
It's typically impossible to remove a virus from your DNA because viruses integrate into the host cell's DNA, becoming a permanent part of the genome. Removing a virus would require altering the DNA sequence of every affected cell, which is not currently feasible with existing technology.
DNA and protein capsids make up a virus particle. The DNA (or RNA) carries the genetic material of the virus, while the protein capsid provides protection and helps the virus to infect host cells.
No, a lysogenic virus integrates its DNA into the host cell's genome instead of injecting it. This integrated viral DNA, called a prophage, replicates along with the host cell's DNA.
The typical life cycle of a DNA virus involves attachment to the host cell, entry into the cell, replication of viral DNA and production of new virus particles, and finally release of these new viruses to infect other cells.
HPV (human papillomavirus) contains DNA. It is a double-stranded DNA virus that can infect the skin and mucous membranes of humans, causing various conditions such as warts and certain types of cancer.
A DNA virus has only DNA as its genetic material.
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a DNA virus. It has a large double-stranded DNA genome.
What a cell and a virus have in common is the RNA or DNA. The virus can be either a RNA virus or a DNA virus.
DNA+DNA=virus
DNA+DNA=virus
AIDS is not a virus. However, HIV is a RNA virus.
virus consist of two layers: 1. its inner layer is made up of DNA. 2. whereas its outer layer or covering is made up of PROTEIN.......and such virus is known as BACTERIOPHAGE VIRUS
HIV is an RNA-virus. It does not contain DNA.
Of course a virus is bigger. Viruses contain DNA which is a polymer made up of many molecules.
WAY too easy.you just add DNA with DNA which equals virus
Smallpox contains DNASmallpox is a virus, and therefore, can only have RNA or DNA. In the case of smallpox, it contains DNA. Viruses require a host to supply them with either RNA or DNA in order that more virus entities can be made.DNA
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.
