Answer:
The name virus was coined by Martinus Beijerinck who was a Dutch microbiologist. The term ‘virus’ is derived from the Latin word ‘virus’ which means toxin or poison. It is a sub-microscopic particle which infect a biological organism’s cell. Virus cannot reproduce on their own, and rather, can reproduce only by infecting a host cell. Virus can cause a number of diseases such as yellow fever, rabies, small pox, etc.
