EVERYDAY SCIENCE

Detailed explanation-1: -During attachment and penetration, the virus attaches itself to a host cell and injects its genetic material into it. During uncoating, replication, and assembly, the viral DNA or RNA incorporates itself into the host cell’s genetic material and induces it to replicate the viral genome.

Detailed explanation-2: -The virus’s genome is uncoated from the protein and injected into the host cell. Then the viral genome hijacks the host cell’s machinery, forcing it to replicate the viral genome and produce viral proteins to make new capsids. Next, the viral particles are assembled into new viruses.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -The viral proteins produced include capsid proteins. Assembly. Capsid proteins and RNA genomes come together to make new viral particles.

Detailed explanation-5: -Step 1: Attachment: The virus attaches itself to the target cell. Step 2: Penetration: The virus is brought into the target cell. Step 3: Uncoating and Replication: The enveloped virus loses its envelope, and viral RNA is released into the nucleus, where it is replicated. Step 4: Assembly: Viral proteins are assembled.
