Q

how viruses reproduce

A
  1. uses fibers to attach to a host cell
  2. injects nucleic acid into host cell
  3. nucleic acid directs the cell to make capsids and more nucleic acids
  4. each capsid combines with a nucleic acid to complete virus
  5. cell bursts open because of too many viruses and they go to find other cells
