Across
  1. 1. infectious, misfolded proteins that lack genetic material that cause damage to brain tissue
  2. 2. replicating viral genetic material
  3. 5. virus-like agent that affects plants
  4. 6. putting together new virions
  5. 9. a classification system based on a virus' nucleic acid and how it is produced
  6. 10. contains proteins that allows virus to attach to cells
  7. 12. areas where virus-infected cells have been destroyed
  8. 13. getting into host cell
Down
  1. 1. within cell cytoplasm
  2. 3. damage to host cell by virus
  3. 4. effect on oncogenic virus' on host cells; the cell changes into cancer
  4. 5. external protein shell (capsid) and one or more nucleic acid segment of either DNA OR RNA
  5. 7. a virus that infects and replicates inside bacteria
  6. 8. new virions leave host cell and infect other cells
  7. 11. non-living genetic material that infect cells by taking control of the host cell's genetic material and regulating the synthesis and assembly of new viruses
