Structure of virus-
Viruses are non living in atmosphere means whenever it exist in atmosphere they are in dead condition but, if it enters in any plant or animal body or cell it alive and start its growth. It is made up of protein and nucleic acid. The outer surface of virus body is covered by a spike so it has a small projection on virus body.
Outer covering of virus is called capsid and it is made up of protein and inner material is nucleic acid in the form of DNA and RNA.
When virus enters in a body .Capsid is dissolved in our body with blood or fat . Protein is not harmful to us but the genetic material that is DNA or RNA enters to a body cell nucleus and it combines to our body cell DNA and RNA by the process of cell division. We know that our body's cells divide rapidly. At 1 minute the cell divides 100 times, that's why virus enter in our body rapidly increases number and show their symptoms in our body. When the virus DNA or RNA combines with the our body cell DNA or RNA ,then it control the function of the cells and then slowly it control the function of the organ and finally the body control by the DNA or RNA of virus, and a body shows the symptoms of disease.
Different stages of virus life cycle
Virus life cycle is undergo into five stages.
Stage 1st-
stage first it called incubation stage it is 10 to 15 days stage in this stage virus infected the cell and organ of body
2nd stage-
It is a identification stage in this stage virus rapidly multiply and our body shows symptoms of disease.
3rd stage-
In this stage virus rapidly increases their number in a body and spread in whole body cells.
Stage 4th and 5th is called recovery stage. In this stage the infected person recover rapidly and the effect of virus minimise .
Effect of Corona virus on our body cells-
- Virus is attached to WBC of blood and minimise its functions.
