Question
Chapter 13, Problem 1SA
Summary Introduction
To answer:
The comparison and contrast between the cell organelles of virus and bacteria.
Introduction:
The viruses are obligate organisms that show signs of life only inside a host. Outside the host, they either die or do not show any sign of life. They invade the host cell to carry out their function like replication. Unlike viruses, the bacteria are able to manage their own

Both will inactivate coronaviruses by a similar mechanism of action. Describe that mechanism of action and why both chemicals are able to cause it.

One such reason is that some viruses use RNA as their genetic material instead of DNA. Which of the five biological themes does this violate?

- Match each of the following replication classes of viruses with the one description that best describes it. This virus class is composed of segmented and non-segmented helical viruses that carry an RdRp within the virion into the cell. Example: Rabies virus These viruses are non- enveloped, icosahedral, have segmented genomes, and carry their own RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. The viral genome is copied following assembly. Example: Reovirus This is the only class of RNA viruses whose genome is replicated by cellular enzymes and not an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. Cellular DNA polymerases replicate this virus's non- integrated genome, although transcription is not the initial event that takes place in the process. Example: Parvoviruses In this class of viruses, transcription occurs before genome replication because viral proteins are involved in replicating the genome. Example: Adenovirus This class of viruses forms circular DNA and creates pre- genomic RNA using host RNA polymerases.…arrow_forwardDescribe one similarity and one difference between the characteristics of Bacteria and viruses with examplesarrow_forwardClassify the following viruses according to Baltimore classification by completing table.
