Virus
17
Virus Non-living Do not use energy to grow
Do not respond to their surroundings Sub-microscopic Unable to grow or reproduce outside a host cell. A host is an organism that harbors a virus or parasite.
18
Virus Each viral particle, or virion, consists of just two parts
Genetic material, DNA or RNA. A protective protein coat called a capsid.
19
Virus Viruses multiply by entering a host cell and taking over cell function with its own genetic material. The infected host cells then produce more protein and genetic material to assemble new virion.
