NURSING ANM AND GNM

Detailed explanation-1: -A complete virus particle is called a virion. The main function of the virion is to deliver its DNA or RNA genome into the host cell so that the genome can be expressed (transcribed and translated) by the host cell. The viral genome, often with associated basic proteins, is packaged inside a symmetric protein capsid .

Detailed explanation-2: -All true viruses contain nucleic acid-either DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) or RNA (ribonucleic acid)-and protein. The nucleic acid encodes the genetic information unique for each virus. The infective, extracellular (outside the cell) form of a virus is called the virion.

Detailed explanation-3: -Although some DNA virus particles form in the nucleus, the cytoplasm is the most common site of particle assembly. In the majority of cases, cellular membranes are used to anchor virus proteins, and this initiates the process of assembly.
