●● Viruses
Answer: cellular nonliving structures that require a living cell to
reproduce (obligate parasites).
single celled, has an outer capsid that protects nucleic acid core (RNA) ,
and requires a host cell to reproduce. have the ability to reproduce,
adapt, are organized, respond to stimuli, and acquire energy and
materials.
●● 2 Main Components of Viruses
Answer: Capsid - outer portion comprised of proteins
Nucleic Acid Core (DNA or RNA)
●● Virus Life Cycle
Answer: Attachment, Entry, Replication, Biosynthesis, Assembly,
Building of Emergence, Repeat
●● Qualities Of Life
,Answer: Living things are organized, acquire materials, reproduce,
respond to stimuli, are homeostatic, grow and develop, have the capacity
to adapt.
Individuals do not evolve.
