Chapter 19, Problem 7CT
Summary Introduction
To determine:
Which other viruses should be eradicated as smallpox virus is eradicated in nature and also describe the features of their biology that make them suitable candidate.
Introduction:
Small pox is defined as an infectious viral disease caused by Variola major and Variola minor. It is a deadly disease which is highly communicable, as it spread from person to person.

Students have asked these similar questions
Host specificity of a virus is due to
O 1) similarities in size between the virus and the host cell.
O 2) the presence or absence of a cell wall on the host cell.
O 3) particular genes that it shares with the infected cell.
4) compatibility between viral and cellular surface molecules.
5) the presence of an envelope.
Which of the following statements is not correct forviruses?(a) Viruses are obligate parasites.(b) Viruses can multiply only when they are inside theliving cells.(c) Viruses cannot pass through bacterial filters.(d) Viruses are made up of protein and DNA or RNA(never both DNA and RNA).
Please try to break the solutions into as many steps as practically possible and the steps should come one by one and they should be short and crisp and plagiarism-free.
