• Viruses are both and neither• They have some properties of
life but not others• For example, viruses can be
killed, even crystallized like table salt
• However, they can’t maintain a constant internal state (homeostasis).

What Is a Virus?
A typical virus is composed of a core of DNA or RNA surrounded by a protein coat.
A capsid is the virus’s protein coat.

Viral Infection
Viral InfectionOnce the virus is inside the host cell, two different
processes may occur. – Some viruses replicate immediately, killing the host cell. – Others replicate, but do not kill the host cell immediately.

Lytic Infection
In a lytic infection, a virus enters a cell, makes copies of itself, and causes the cell to burst.

Viral Infection
Lysogenic Infection
Other viruses cause lysogenic infections in which a host cell makes copies of the virus indefinitely.
In a lysogenic infection, a virus integrates its DNA into the DNA of the host cell, and the viral genetic information replicates along with the host cell's DNA.

RetrovirusesRetrovirusesRetroviruses contain RNA as their genetic
information.
When retroviruses infect cells, they make a DNA copy of their RNA.
This DNA is inserted into the DNA of the host cell.
