Please match the definition. 1. Layers that surround the virus, giving it an exact shape that will interlock with the host cell. 2. Process where a virus inserts its DNA into and replicates with the host cell's genetic material (does not destroy cell). 3. Non-living particles that reproduce inside a living cell. 4. The genetic material (DNA or RNA) inside a virus. 5. Process by which a virus enters a host cell, uses its raw materials and energy to create new viruses, which then burst from the host cell (destroying it) and spread.

Viral Replication

The virus is acellular and considered non-living outside the host cell. The replication of the virus occurs only inside the living cells. Only a few genes are present in the smallest virus, whereas many genes are present in the largest virus. These genes encode specific viral proteins.
