Active. It will go directly to find a host cell and begin the steps of the lytic cycle to cause the host's cell to replicate the virus (see the related questions for more about the lytic cycle). It does not stay "dormant" inside you to manifest symptoms later. An infection will produce symptoms right away if you are infected. Then, once new viruses are made in the host cell, they will burst out and infect more cells and potentially more people.
Not exactly. Cold viruses are all over the place, you are breathing them in right this second. The reason you don't get sick is that your immune system gets rid of it.
When you are dared to wear a tank top in the snow (true story for me), the extreme cold weakens your immune system just enough for the cold viruses to get inside your body and make you sick.
A cold sore is a herpes virus. It is found in the nervous system and can remain hidden or latent. When hidden it is not active. When reactivated the sore becomes seen again. Shingles acts the same way.
The common cold is in fact an active virus. Once the certain virus has infected a new host it immediately begins multiplying within the cells of the new host.
What is called a cold is an active virus. It is because you show symptoms within 12 hours of infection. If it were latent, it would cause a disease for months even years.
A cold is an active virus.
active virus
No it is an active virus.
an active one
You do not categorize virus into hidden or active category. That way, every virus is hidden inside the cell. It can not grow outside the cell. Every virus is active. Otherwise it would have disappeared from the race of life. It is very interesting to know about the virus. Now you study it. Tomorrow the world will learn from you.
Im pretty sure polio is a hidden virus
The cold virus is known to be hidden. This is hidden because a virus like this can hide in your body until whenever you start to become sick with this. * I learned about this in Science like a month ago, (: Justsaying. But it is HIDDEN; NOT active, (: wait wait wait how is it hidden if we get it slowly (the cold). and why is it hidden when both ways you'll still get sick. almost all my teachers say its active but in my life science book it states its hidden. whos right whos wrong arggg :( i really need a correct answer :)
The virus that causes cold sores in humans is an example of a hidden virus.
it's active
Severe Acute Respretory syndrome is a hidden virus
Cold sores are caused by a virus HSV-type 1.Yes oral herpes is a viral infection.
The common cold is a great example of an active virus. Also, the flu and the herpes virus are also considered to be active viruses.
They are not hidden, when you get measles, you would get symptoms right away.
