Viruses By: Matt, Genzie, Lexie and Joe

Examples of the Kingdom Small Pox Chicken Pox

Adaptations  Viruses adapt to their hosts by evading defense mechanisms and taking over the cell’s metabolism for their own benefit.  A virus can only attach to very few types of cells.  In other viruses the attachment protein is in the capsid or in the envelope

Would You Consider your Kingdom Complex or Simple?  Viruses are complex organisms because it can adapt to there host and come in a variety of forms. Also they spread quickly from host to host.

Interesting Facts  There are a million virus particles per milliliter of seawater and if stretched from end to end they would reach 200 million light years into space.  The name virus came from the Latin word meaning slimy liquid or poison.  Viruses are not living. They are inanimate complex organic matter.
