Replication of a virus Step 1: Attachment (entrance) Virus attaches to the host cell Injects its DNA/RNA into bacterium Step 2: Synthesis DNA/RNA replicates with bacterium Step 3: Assembly Bacteriophage protein and genetic material are assembled Step 4: Release Viruses are released, host cell dies

Virus Life Cycle

Structure of a virus

Are viruses living? Researchers first discovered agents that behaved like bacteria but were much smaller and caused diseases such as rabies and foot- and-mouth disease, it became the general view that viruses were biologically "alive.". This perception changed in 1935 when the tobacco mosaic virus was crystallized and it was shown that the particles lacked the mechanisms necessary for metabolic function. Once it was established that viruses consist merely of DNA or RNA surrounded by a protein shell, it became the scientific view that they are more complex biochemical mechanisms than living organisms.

Different types of viruses Herpes Vaccine Common virus

Immune system Your immune system is like an army. To boost your immune system you take a booster or a vaccine Vaccines are weak or fake version of the virus, so your body can fight these viruses quicker and easier so when they come encounter with these viruses in full dosses your body will react quickly and send the antibodies to kill the virus. The reason you take a vaccine is because as soon as you get a virus the doctors can do very little on help fight it. It is all up to you immune system and its little army called anti bodies. mune-system-viruses-cells

Viruses A viruses habitat is a host cell It contains nucleic acid and a protein capsid There is no cure for a virus, it can only be prevented by a vaccine

Fun facts The name virus was coined from the Latin word meaning slimy liquid or poison There are a million virus particles per ml of seawater – for a global total of 1030 virions! Lined up end to end, they would stretch 200 million light years into space. The smallest known viruses are circoviruses, which are 20 nanometers ( millimeters) in diameter. The viral genome is 1,700 nucleotides in length and codes for two proteins.
