Expert Solution

Step 1

Virus is a microscopic organism it is not though made up of a complex structure as it has only protein and genetic material

Protein is the outer covering which helps in penetration of virus into the cell while the genetic material which can be either dna or RNA which act as a virulent factor.

There are various matheod by which virus enter into the cell

These are as follows :

Membrane fusion : this is the most common type of virus (non enveloped) entry into the cell

Endocytosis: this is the complex process where the whole virus(enveloped) enter the cell.
