Characteristics of Life
Viruses Are they alive?. The properties of life ● You already know that living things: 1. Made of cells 2. Grow and reproduce 3. Use information from.

Viruses. Virus: Particles of nucleic acid, protein, some lipids Reproduce vicariously Use the cells they infect to build new viruses.
Viruses Living or Not Virus Virus – small particle made of 1.Nucleic acids either DNA or RNA 2.Surrounded by a protein coat.
Viruses Section 19–2 This section describes the structure of a virus. It also explains how viruses cause infection.
 Viruses- particles of nucleic acid, protein and sometimes lipids  Most viruses are so small, they can only be seen through a powerful electron microscope.
Viruses. Virus A non living particle composed of a nucleic acid and a protein coat A non living particle composed of a nucleic acid and a protein coat.
Viruses. Nonliving particle – do not contain all characteristics of life Reproduce by infecting cells Made of 2 things Nucleic acid Capsid – protein coat.
VIRUSES. Viruses Are Not Cells! There are several structural and functional differences between cells and viruses There are several structural and functional.

Viruses Living or Not Virus Virus – small particle made of 1.Nucleic acids either DNA or RNA 2.Surrounded by a protein coat.
1. Non-living 2. Not cellular 3. Unable to reproduce except in a host cell 4. Smaller than bacterial cells 5. CANNOT BE TREATED WITH ANTIBIOTICS; only.

Virus Review Questions

1. Explain why viruses are not considered to be living organisms. 2. Describe 2 structures that are characteristic of all viruses. 3. Differentiate between the lytic and lysogenic cycle. 4. Describe the structure of viroids and prions. 5. Why is it possible for some viral diseases to remain undetected for years?

1. Explain why viruses are not considered to be living organisms. Answer: Viruses are not considered to be living because they cannot reproduce on their own, do not grow, do not carry out metabolic activities, and are not made of cells.

2. Describe 2 structures that are characteristic of all viruses. Answer: Nucleic Acids (DNA or RNA) and a capsid

3. Differentiate between the lytic and lysogenic cycle. Answer: The lytic cycle involves rupturing the host cell to produce new viruses. The lysogenic cycle involves viral genetic material becoming embedded in the host cell and being replicated with the host cell.

4. Describe the structure of viroids and prions. Answer: Viroids are a single strand of RNA that can replicate inside a host cell. Prions are misshapen versions of proteins that cause normal proteins to change shape and stop functioning.

5. Why is it possible for some viral diseases to remain undetected for years? Answer: Lysogenic viruses can remain undetected inside a host cell for years. The viral genetic material is replicated with the host cell and does not cause any symptoms. Eventually, the virus may enter the lytic cycle and cause illness in the host.
