Answer 1

Answer:

Viruses have a peculiar characteristics of having either DNA or RNA as the genetic material . They never have both of these nucleic acids . This makes it a distinguishing feature from the group of Bacterias.

Coming to your question , the Genetic Material of COVID - 19 is as follows :

$\: \: \: \: \: \boxed{ \red{ \huge{ \bold{ss \: - RNA}}}}$

[ "ss" stands for Single Stranded .

RNA stands for Ribo-nucleic Acid. ]

Additional information :

• Enveloped virus
• Genetic material has 60 kilo-bases
• Main means of spread is Droplet Infection
• Initially was zoonotic infection but now spreads from Person To Person
• Viral "S" spike protein attach to the Pneumocytes of the lungs.
