Question

what type of virus is replicating in the picture?
(a) (-)ssrna
(b) dsrna
(c) dsdna
(d) (+)ssrna

Explanation:

The diagram shows a single - stranded negative - sense RNA ((-)ssRNA) viral genome. (-)ssRNA viruses use RNA - dependent RNA polymerase to transcribe a (+)RNA strand (viral mRNA) for translation into viral proteins and also to replicate their genome. The starting viral genome is clearly labeled as ss (-) RNA.

Answer:

A. (-)ssRNA
