They are all obligate parasites metabolism, only the infection of a cell viruses, they will have either dna or rna never find both together in a virus. A virus is a simple entity, a genome or recipe packaged in a box (protein attributed to living things) but they can increase their number so its like multiplying. They cannot grow independently of a cell, if there"s a virus it is innert, no. They cannot multiply independently, they don"t reproduce (reproduction is. All living cellular organisms will have dna and rna not the case for. Naked viruses genome (dna/rna) within a capsid, genome + capsid is.

Naked virus to multiply it must enter the cell, they have spikes which are viral key and this recognizes a specific cellular receptor and if it"s the.
