What are proteins made of?1 A, T, C and G nucleic acids muscle tissue long strings of glucose molecules amino acids Where did the name “Ebola” come from?1 an African word for "sickness" an African word for "virus" a river in west Africa a country in Africa What does the Pandoravirus attack?1 paramecium ameba humans bacteria dogs What is a virus capsid made of?1 lipid RNA protein DNA glycoproteins The only parts that ALL viruses have in common are: a capsid and a genome.1 True False Where does a virus gets its lipid envelope (if it has one)?1 From the host cell it came out of. From other viruses. The virus manufactures it. From lipid molecules floating in the environment. Which of these viruses is the smallest?1 adeno Pandora rabies parvo Which of the viruses attacks plants?1 parvo adeno Pandora Ebola TMV Why does a virus have spikes?1 To help them attach to cells. To identify its species. As a defense mechanism against other microbes. To help them float in the air. Which of these viruses looks like a bullet?1 HIV Ebola TMV rabies Pandora Which one of these atoms is NOT in an amino acid molecule?1 H O B N C Where do you find a virus’s matrix (if it has one)?1 right under the lipid envelope inside the capsid on the outside of the lipid envelope in the RNA or DNA How many sides does an icosahedron have?1 20 60 16 12 24 Which one of these letters never appears in DNA or RNA?1 G T E C U A Sometimes you find tiny proteins inside a capsid, along with the genome of DNA or RNA.1 True False VIRUSES lesson 2: Size and prevalence Back to: VIRUSES lesson 1: Morphology and anatomy
