Question

which of the following statements about viruses is false? they have a protein coat they have their own metabolism they have genes they contain either dna or rna question 4 (1 point) which of the following is not used to classify bviruses? biochemical tests morphology nucleic acid capsomeres

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Viruses lack their own metabolism as they rely on host - cell machinery for metabolic processes. Biochemical tests are not typically used to classify viruses as they are acellular and do not have metabolic reactions that can be tested in the same way as cellular organisms. Morphology (shape), nucleic acid type (DNA or RNA), and capsomeres (sub - units of the protein coat) are used in virus classification.

Answer:

  1. they have their own metabolism
  2. biochemical tests
