How does a virus reproduce?

What cycle does a virus have to go through to reproduce and how is it done?

  • Answer:

    Some viruses require host cell polymerases to replicate their genome, while others, such as adenoviruses or herpes viruses, encode their own replication factors. However, in either cases, replication of the viral genome is highly dependent on a cellular state permissive to DNA replication and, thus, on the cell cycle.
