Q

RNA viruses are

A

retro viruses and have a high rate of mutation by using transcriptase enzymes and rna polymerase
short life cycle and reproduce quickly

A

attacks white blood cells (T)
cause aids
reproduces quickly and prone to mutations (making more or less harmful)
and can exchange traits

Q

how viruses replicate (5)

A
  1. attatches to host cell
  2. injects nucleica acid to cytoplasm
  3. use protein systheis to prodice viral proteins
  4. assemble new viral proteins
  5. release viral proteins
