The virus that causes chickenpox, known as varicella zoster virus or VZV, is closely related to the herpes viruses and is an enveloped, double-stranded DNA virus
There is no chickenpox RNA; chickenpox is a DNA virus.
Hello there! Shingles is a disease caused by a reactivated varicella-zoster virus, the one responsible for chickenpox and it belongs to the herpesvirus superfamily where all of them are DNA viruses. Thank you for the question! 😄
AIDS is not a virus. However, HIV is a RNA virus.
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.
Chickenpox is caused by varicella zoster virus, which is a DNA virus and a member of the herpesvirus family.
Varicella-zoster virus, the virus that causes chickenpox, has a double-stranded DNA genome.
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
Bacteria has both DNA and RNA where as Virus has either DNA or RNA
The genetic molecule of a virus is either DNA or RNA, but not both. Viruses can have single-stranded or double-stranded DNA or RNA.
The H1N1 virus contains RNA as its genetic material. It is a single-stranded RNA virus that belongs to the family Orthomyxoviridae.
The virus for warts and chickenpox's contain DNA.
Chickenpox is caused by a virus. Viruses, strictly speaking, are not cellular and are not alive, but some people call them microorganisms nevertheless.
