VIRUS AND BACTERIA

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
When a ____ enters your body, it invades some of your cells and takes over some of the cell’s organelles, redirecting it to produce more of ____
A
Bacteria
B
Vrius
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -It has been known for decades that once a virus gets inside a cell, it hijacks the cellular processes to produce virally encoded protein that will replicate the virus’s genetic material.

Detailed explanation-2: -How viruses travel through the body. Once a virus gets into a host’s body, it travels along the surfaces of cells until its proteins begin to bind with receptors on the cells. The virus and the cells then fuse, allowing the DNA or RNA inside the virus to enter the cells, where it begins to reproduce.

Detailed explanation-3: -First, the virus undergoes host-triggered conformational changes in the ER, priming it for membrane penetration.

Detailed explanation-4: -When it comes into contact with a host cell, a virus can insert its genetic material into its host, literally taking over the host’s functions. An infected cell produces more viral protein and genetic material instead of its usual products.
