Question type: multiple choice
1) which of the following terms describes the protein shell that surrounds the viral
genome?
A) capsid
B) envelope
C) matrix
D) virion
E) capsomere
Ans>> a
The capsid is the protein shell that encloses and protects the viral genome. It is composed
of protein subunits called capsomeres (choice e), but the shell as a whole is called the
capsid. The envelope (choice b) is a lipid membrane that some viruses acquire from host
cells. The matrix (choice c) lies between the capsid and envelope in some viruses. The
virion (choice d) refers to the complete, infectious virus particle.
2) which of the following would not be a nucleic acid form found in a viral genome?
A) dsdna
B) ssdna
C) dsrna
D) ssrna
E) an rna:dna hybrid
