Which of the following statement about viruses is correct ?
Viruses are obligate parasites
Viruses contain both RNA and DNA
Nucleic acid of viruses is known as capsid
Viruses possess their own metabolic system
A.
Viruses are obligate parasites
Viruses produce characteristic symptoms on the host. They also behave as living organisms inside the host tissue. These are nucleoprotein particles having DNA or RNA as genetic material. Hence, they are known as they are called intra-cellular obligate parasite.
