Virus

The general structure of a virus is extremely small in height and diameter and enclosed in a protein shell or coat. The genetic material at makes up the virus can be the following; Double stranded DNA, Double stranded RNA, single stranded DNA and Single stranded RNA? This genetic material is dependent on the type of virus and its nature

Some examples of plant viruses found on earth are lettuce mosaic virus, grapevine fanleaf virus and the bushy stunt virus, some examples of animal viruses include, small pox, scurvy, and the plague. I think that viruses are very much alive because they target certain animals and plants so that they can get energy or nutrition from it. But i think that the viruses may not be alive as well because most viruses are transmitted by other animals or plants so it may be that its just a natural thing rather than alive. There are many beneficial viruses as a matter of fact. Viruses spread their genes and they can take over the host of bacterias which then is a positive for humans but also a negative because the virus will spread in a way
