No, viruses do not have a nucleus like cells do. Viruses are tiny infectious agents that consist of genetic material (DNA or RNA) enclosed in a protein coat. They are considered a non-living entity because they cannot replicate or carry out metabolic functions on their own.

What is a living thing that a virus or parasite lives on or in organism with no nucleus?
A virus or parasite that lives within an organism lacking a nucleus could infect a prokaryotic cell, such as a bacterium. In this case, the virus or parasite would utilize the host's cellular machinery to replicate and survive without the presence of a nucleus.
What is a nuclear polyhedral virus?
This virus' image, using an electron microscope, shows an inclusion which appears to be similar to a nucleus. (Viruses have strands of RNA or DNA but no nucleus.) That is where the "nuclear" originates from. Polyhedral means that the virus has many sides. This is one of three shapes that viruses show. It affects the Wattle Bag Worm, the Korean Gypsy Moth, and cabbage leaves.
DNA is found only in the what?
nucleus *DNA is located in the cytoplasm of prokaryotes, they have no nucleus. Also it is found in the capsule of certain virus proteins. It's in the sperm cell which has no nucleus as well.
Does a virus have eukaryotes?
thank makes no sence.. a eukaryote is a cell with a nucleus. technically a virus isn't even a cell... its just DNA/ rna in a protein coat. it cannot reproduce unless it has a host cell to insert its DNA/rna into.
What does a typical virus cell look like?
A virus is not considered a cell because it lacks cellular structures like a nucleus or organelles. Instead, a virus typically consists of genetic material (DNA or RNA) surrounded by a protein coat called a capsid. Some viruses may also have an outer lipid envelope.
