An hidden virus makes you sick.

Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Both are viruses that are going to invade and reproduce in a host cell. The difference is that an active virus immediately takes over the cell and a hidden virus stays “hidden” and waits a while to take over.

Detailed explanation-2: -An active replication of the viral genome results in a lytic infection characterized by the release of new progeny virus particles, often upon the lysis of the host cell. Another mode of virus infection is the latent phase, where the virus is ‘quiescent’ (a state in which the virus is not replicating).

Detailed explanation-3: -Viruses can be disguised as attachments of funny images, greeting cards, or audio and video files. Computer viruses also spread through downloads on the Internet. They can be hidden in pirated software or in other files or programs that you might download.

Detailed explanation-4: -Your device is slower than usual. Slow internet connection. Suspicious data consumption. Suspicious pop-ups/notifications. Device crashes. Messages you didn’t send. Apps or programs you didn’t download. Unresponsive system. More items
