TMV or Tobacco Mosaic Virus causes viral infection to the tobbacco plant. It is a rod-shaped helical RNA virus which consists of a single strand of RNA placed centrally enveloped by a protein coat.
Virus like particles (VLP) are ____________
Answer: D
An immunogenic organism can evoke the immune response when entered inside a host. Immunosuppressive organism can suppress the host immune response and infectious organism can cause infection to the host. VLP or Virus like particles are the outer protein covering of the virus with no viral genetic material. Hence, they can evoke host immune response but cannot cause infection to the host.
The integrated genetic material of a virus is called __________________
Answer: B
The virus infection is caused by the entry of entry of viral DNA into the host cell. After this, the viral DNA is integrated into the host genome. This viral genetic material incorporated into host genome and able to replicate itself is called as provirus.
