26
Q

Viruses

A

Not living

27
Q

Virus’s characteristics

A

Do not carry out respiration, do not grow or move, do not reproduce-only in host cell, contain only one kind of nucleic acid, may be crystallized

28
Q

Inner core of virus

A

Either DNA or RNA

29
Q

Protective outer coat of protein virus

A

Capsid, determines receptor site

30
Q

Reproductive cycles

A

Lyric cycle and lysogenic cycle

31
Q

Lytic cycle

A

Attaches to receptor site, nucleic and injects into cell, replication, assembly, lysis and release

32
Q

Lysogenic cycle

A

Injects nucleic acid, provirus forms Prophage, provirus is reproduced, cell enters lytic cycle

33
Q

When call enters lyric cycle

A

Provirus leaves chromosomes, lytic cycle, cell lyses

34
Q

Provirus examples

A

Cold sores-herpes
Hepatitis B
Chicken pox-shingles

35
Q

Retrovirus

A

Only RNA

36
Q

Retrovirus reverse transcription

A

An enzyme that speeds up the copies or Viral RNA into DNA

37
Q

RNA lytic virus

A

Follows lytic cycle, makes copies of RNA by base pairing
