3.

All viruses have

b. RNA.
C. Glycoprotein spikes
D. host specificity

4. T/F all viral diseases convey lifelong immunity

5. T/F an attenuated virus in a vaccine is better for determining a long-lasting effect than a killed one.

Explanation / Answer

Answer:

1.A) d

2.A) d

3.A) All viruses have Glycoprotein spikes and host specificity.Viruses having only DNA or RNA not both.

4.A)

Once a person attacked by the virus,the host body responses primary immune response to produce antibodies against virus.So, when ever the same virus infect the same host body, the antibodies are responses like secondary immune system.(i.e.,like wise viral diseases convey lifelong immunity.)

5.A)

Yes,an attenuated virus in a vaccine is better for determining a long-lasting effect than a killed one.
Because in the case of killed virus vaccine prepared by killing the virus completely.but an attenuated virus produced by inactivate the virulence of pathogen.Due to this process An attenuated vaccine activate the host body to produce more no:of antibodies than killed one.
