What helps the flu or mumps virus enter and leave the host cell?
Receptors on the cell that the virus can attach to.
What surrounds the capsid and helps the virus enter the cell?
envelope
When virus enter a lysogenic phase it mean?
the virus is integrate inti the DNA of the host cell and is latent.
What is a list of things that might go wrong in the cell without the cell membrane's help?
the bacteria and virus can easily enter into the cell.this make the cell to damage
Do viruses grow on dead cells?
Viruses that enter a cell do not die. A virus cannot reproduce on its own so it needs to find a cell in which to live. After the virus is done reproducing, most host cells die.
How do virus enter a particle cell?
it will enter from air
What helps the flu or mumps virus enter and leave the host cell?
Receptors on the cell that the virus can attach to.
Do viruses only reproduce within one cell?
Virus cannot replicate themselves. They should enter a living cell
What surrounds the capsid and helps the virus enter the cell?
envelope
Why can a virus enter some types of human cells and not others?
Some viruses are very specific to certain cells. The cell has proteins on it's surface and a virus will use it a docking station to be able to enter the cell. Some cells don't have that protein and the virus can not enter the cell.
What correctly orders the events in the attack of the HIV virus on a cell?
enter cell, attach to cell, replicate, kill cell
When virus enter a lysogenic phase it mean?
the virus is integrate inti the DNA of the host cell and is latent.
Virus particles survive in the body they may enter a cell and start to?
multiply
Do virus have specialized structures or internal compartments?
I dont know actually. I had the same question for school. But I think they dont. Virus cells dont live, they need to enter a living cell first.
How a virus tricks a cell to enter?
They are like cockle burrs that "grab" hold of your clothing or a dog's coat. They are hijackers. Once they get attached to the cell of a living cell, they can take it over and "make" the living cell produce virus particles instead of cell parts.
How does the chickenpox virus enter sensory nerves?
The virus slams against the nerve cell and opens the nerve cell's membrane by fusing its membrane with it. The contents of the virus enter the nerves and begin the negative effects.
What is a list of things that might go wrong in the cell without the cell membrane's help?
