WorksheetsBiology Lock-In 2 : Viruses & Viral Replication
Total questions: 10
Worksheet time: 10mins
When a virus attaches to a host, what does it inject into the host?
Protein coat
DNA/genetic material
Capsid
Envelope
Label the correct steps of the LYTIC CYCLE.
(a)
Label the Virus with the correct parts.
Select the Viral Reproductive Cycle where the virus introduces its gnome into a host cell and initiates replication by hijacking the host's cellular machinery to make new copies of the virus. Once infection is complete, the virus particles are released through lysis of the host cell.
Select the Viral Reproductive Cycle by which a virus can replicate its DNA by using a host cell. In this Reproductive Cycle only the DNA is replicated, but not translated into proteins.
What is the main function of a virus when it attaches to a host?
Replicate its genetic material
Destroy the host cell
Inject its genetic material into the host
Form a protein coat around the host cell
Which component of a virus is responsible for attaching to a host cell?
Protein coat
DNA/genetic material
Capsid
Envelope
Organize these options into the correct categories.
have Organelles
protein capsid
DNA/RNA
Have Proteins
Reproduce independently
need a host to reproduce
Evolve
maintain homeostasis
sole purpose is to replicate
