How do enveloped viruses differ from nonenveloped viruses?
DNA or RNA + Structural Proteins + Enzymes and nucleic acid binding proteins = Nucleocapsid (may be the same as a virion or surrounded by an envelope) If there is only a Nucleocapsid, then it is considered a Naked Capsid Virus If there is a Nucleocapsid with the addition of Glycoproteins and a Membrane, then the virus is considered enveloped.
Are viruses unicellular?
Yes, viruses are considered acellular particles because they are not made up of cells like unicellular organisms. Viruses are composed of genetic material (either DNA or RNA) surrounded by a protective protein coat. They can only replicate within a host cell, using the host's cellular machinery to reproduce.
What living things do not have cells?
Viruses are the only living things that do not have cells. They are considered acellular because they consist of genetic material surrounded by a protein coat but lack the structures found in cells, such as organelles.
Do viruses consist of cells?

Are all viruses made out of a cell or cells?
No, viruses are not made of cells. They are small infectious agents that can only replicate inside the living cells of organisms. Viruses consist of genetic material (DNA or RNA) enclosed in a protein coat called a capsid.
