the envelope of enveloped viruses ________.
a is obtained by viral budding or exocytosis
b is identical to the host plasma membrane
c does not contain spikes
d makes the virus very susceptible to drug therapy
e is only composed of host endomembrane

Explanation:

Enveloped viruses acquire their envelope through viral budding or exocytosis from the host - cell membrane. The envelope is not identical to the host plasma membrane as it contains viral - specific proteins (spikes). It is not only composed of host endomembrane and does not necessarily make the virus very susceptible to drug therapy.

Answer:

A. is obtained by viral budding or exocytosis
