Virology Craword Puzzle
Across
- 5. Assembled viruses are released by budding or cell lysis
- 7. Nucleocapsid binds to membrane which pinches off and sheds the viruses gradually
- 9. Spectrum of cells a virus can infect
- 10. Enzyme to degrade cell walls
- 12. Copy RNA
- 16. Infects human liver cells
- 17. Infects various cells of many mammals
- 18. Nucleic Acid and Capsid
- 19. Synthesize new DNA or RNA
Down
- 1. viruses use spikes located on the envelope to bind to receptors that are found on the host cell (influenza).
- 2. Type of nucleic acid, Morpohology, Replication Strategy
- 3. New viral particles are constructed
- 4. Synthesis of DNA or RNA
- 6. Infects primate intestinal and nerve cells
- 8. the attachment sites are small fibers on the corners of the icosahedron (rhinovirus).
- 10. Nonenveloped and complex viruses released when cell dies and ruptures
- 11. Composed of host cell membrane
- 13. Most <0.2 μm
- 14. Binding of virus to specific molecule on host cell
- 15. Protects the nucleic acid when the virion is outside the host cell
