Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The three basic capsid shapes are icosahedral, helical, and prolate; however, the shape of capsids can vary widely. The capsids are made from capsomeres, or protein subunits.
Detailed explanation-2: -(A) Virus capsids are composed of viral protein subunits that form structural units.
Detailed explanation-3: -The viral genome, often with associated basic proteins, is packaged inside a symmetric protein capsid. The nucleic acid-associated protein, called nucleoprotein, together with the genome, forms the nucleocapsid.
Detailed explanation-4: -Helical Viruses. Icosahedral Viruses. Complex Viruses. Enveloped Viruses. 05-Mar-2021
