$<b>HEY THERE!!$

Viruses depend on the host cells that they infect to reproduce.

When it comes into contact with a host cell, a virus can insert its genetic material into its host, literally taking over the host's functions. An infected cell produces more viral protein and genetic material instead of its usual products.

THE WAYS THAT VIRUS CAN INFECT HEALTHY CELLS:-

✔️Contact with the faces of an infected person.

✔️Breathing in the exhaled droplets when an infected person coughs or sneezes

✔️Indirectly , by touching contaminated surfaces
EXM:- taps , toilet handles, toys and nappies.
