The two main structures of a virus are the genetic material (DNA or RNA) and the protein coat (capsid) that surrounds and protects the genetic material. Some viruses also have an outer lipid envelope derived from the host cell membrane.

What three main structures do viruses have?
Viruses are composed of two main parts: an outer protein covering called a capsid and an inside core of either DNA or RNA. Not both DNA and RNA.Some of these have an envelope over the capsid. The ones that do not are said to be naked. The proteins in the capsid allow the virus to attach to the "docking stations" proteins of the host cell.The naked viruses are more resistant to changes in the environment.A virus can have one of three structures. These are:Helical virus. A helical virus is rod- or thread-shaped. The virus that causes rabies is a helical virus.Icosahedral virus. An icosahedral virus is spherically shaped. Viruses that cause poliomyelitis and herpes simplex are icosahedral viruses.Polyhedral virus.

What is the general shape of viruses?
A virus can have one of two structures. These are: •Helical virus. A helical virus is rod- or thread-shaped. The virus that causes rabies is a helical virus. •Icosahedral virus. An icosahedral virus is spherically shaped. Viruses that cause poliomyelitis and herpes simplex are icosahedral viruses.
Are viruses classified by their shape?
A virus can have one of two structures. These are: •Helical virus. A helical virus is rod- or thread-shaped. The virus that causes rabies is a helical virus. •Icosahedral virus. An icosahedral virus is spherically shaped. Viruses that cause poliomyelitis and herpes simplex are icosahedral viruses.

What is lacking in a virus which makes it dependant on a living cell?
Cellular structures.
When the two main substances that make up a virus are broken into smaller fragments these fragments are?
The two main substances that make up a virus are nucleic acid (DNA or RNA) and protein. When these substances are broken into smaller fragments, the nucleic acid fragments are called nucleotides, and the protein fragments are called amino acids.
When the two main substances that make up a virus are broken into smaller fragments these fragments are what?
Amino acids and nucleotides
What are 4 main parts of a virus?
A virus typically consists of genetic material (DNA or RNA), a protein coat called a capsid that encloses the genetic material, an envelope derived from the host cell membrane (in some viruses), and sometimes additional structures like spikes or tails for attachment and entry into host cells.
