9 Two things that make up a virus

10 What is a protein coat and a nucleic acid?

11 The protein coat is called this

12 What is the capsid?

13 Lipid layer that surrounds some viruses made from the host cell membrane

14 What is the envelope?

15 Nucleic acid found in Retroviruses

16 What is RNA?

17 Projections made of protein and sugar chains on the surface of an envelope to aid in attachment

18 What are glycoproteins?

19 Rabies and the measles viruses have this shape

20 What is a helix?

21 Viral shape consisting of 20 triangular sides

22 What is an icosahedron?

23 Enzyme found in retroviruses

24 What is reverse transcriptase?

25 Short pieces of protein that can cause Mad Cow disease

26 What are prions?

27 Short strands of RNA without a capsid that cause plant disease

28 What are Viroids?

29 Host cell for this phage

30 What are bacteria?

31 Most common types of these phages

32 What are T-phages?

33 Used to attach to their host cell

34 What are tail fibers?

35 Daily Double!!

36 Attaches the head to the tail on this phage

37 What is the collar?

38 The only part of the phage NOT made of protein

39 What is the nucleic acid?

40 Required for a virus to become active and reproduce

41 What is a host cell?

42 Term for a deadly virus

43 What is virulent?

44 Cell Bursting due to newly formed viruses

45 What is lysis?

46 Made of the host’s DNA and viral DNA joined together

47 What is a prophage?

48 Life cycle of a virus that destroys the host cell

49 What is the Lytic Cycle?

50 Causes the disease known as AIDS

51 What is the HIV virus?

52 HIV is this type of virus

53 What is a retrovirus?

54 Viruses that cause influenza?

55 What are myxoviruses?

56 Caused by the bite of an infected animal & which attacks the nervous system

57 What is rabies?

58 A more severe case of chickenpox that often occurs in adults

59 What is shingles?

60 Used to prevent many viral diseases

61 What are vaccines?

62 Daily Double!!

63 Drugs that interfere with the synthesis of viral nucleic acid

64 What are antiviral drugs?

65 Type of virus that has been genetically altered so it can’t cause disease

66 What is an attenuated virus?

67 Additional doses of vaccines given to extend a person’s protection against a virus

68 What are booster shots?

69 Vaccination has eradicated this viral disease in the U.S.

70 What is smallpox?

71 Final Jeopardy

72 Virology

73 Wendell Stanley discovered viral structure by crystallizing these

74 What are Tobacco Mosaic Viruses?
