Write the characteristics oef viruses

Answer 1

Here is your answer dear⬇️⬇️

Characteristics of Viruses are as follows :-

▄ Generally, the viruses are not consider as living organisms because they are known as 'Organisms on the edge of living and non-living' and they can only be observed under a microscope and are studied under microbiology.

▄ Viruses are extremely minute in size, i.e. they are 10 to 100 times smaller than the bacteria.

▄ They are found in the form of independent particles. Virus is a long molecule of DNA (Deoxyribo Nucleic Acid) or RNA (Ribo Nuclei Acid) covered by a protein coat.

▄ Viruses survive only in living plant or animal cells and produce their own proteins with the help of host cell and create their numerous replica. Then they destroy the host cell and become free. These free viruses again infect new cells.

▄ Viruses cause many diseases to plants and animals. Eg, Tomato Wilt Virus, AIDS human virus, etc.
