Where do you find a virus’s matrix (if it has one)?1 inside the capsid in the RNA or DNA on the outside of the lipid envelope right under the lipid envelope 2. Which of these viruses is the smallest?1 Pandora adeno rabies parvo 3. Where does a virus gets its lipid envelope (if it has one)?1 From lipid molecules floating in the environment. From the host cell it came out of. The virus manufactures it. From other viruses. 4. Why does a virus have spikes?1 To identify its species. As a defense mechanism against other microbes.
