Across
  1. 4. the process in which a virus overtakes a cell and uses the cellular machinery of its host to reproduce
  2. 5. composed of proteins but doesn't contain nucleic acids
  3. 7. Proteins that "contain" oligosaccharide chains (glycans covalently attached to polypeptide side-chain
  4. 8. A biological agent that causes disease or illness to its host
  5. 9. large Y-shaped proteins which function to identify and help remove foreign antigens or targets such as viruses and bacteria
  6. 11. a virus genome that is integrated into the DNA of a host cell
  7. 13. rod-shaped cell
  8. 14. a round-shaped cell
  9. 15. a hairlike appendage found on the surface of many bacteria that allows it to attach to another bacteria
  10. 17. A small infectious agent that replicates only inside the living cells of other organisms
  11. 18. oxygen filled
  12. 19. produced by or derived from microorganisms and causing disease in another
Down
  1. 1. A virus that infects and replicates within a bacterium
  2. 2. a dormant, tough, non-reproductive structure produced by a small number of bacteria
  3. 3. when bacteria or unicellular organisms become temporarily united in order to exchange genetic material
  4. 4. integration of the bacteriophage nucleic acid into the host bacterium's genome or formations of a circular replicon in the bacterium's cytoplasm.
  5. 6. Surrounds the nucleus and all of its contents
  6. 9. oxygen free
  7. 10. a spiral cell
  8. 12. a polysaccharide layer that lies outside the cell envelope of bacteria
  9. 14. The protein shell of a virus
  10. 16. a single strand of RNA that has no caspid
