Detailed explanation-1: -Endocytosis: The host cell takes in the viral particle through the process of endocytosis, essentially engulfing the virus like it would a food particle. Viral penetration: The viral capsid or genome is injected into the host cell’s cytoplasm.
Detailed explanation-2: -Entry routes of viruses into host cells. Incoming viruses bind to attachment factors and entry receptors at the plasma membrane. Receptor binding may trigger endocytosis or direct entry at the plasma membrane.
Detailed explanation-3: -Without a host cell, viruses cannot carry out their life-sustaining functions or reproduce. They cannot synthesize proteins, because they lack ribosomes and must use the ribosomes of their host cells to translate viral messenger RNA into viral proteins.
