MCQ
All viruses contain:
  • A
    Protein coat
  • B
    Cell membrane
  • C
    Endoplasmic Reticulum
  • D
    Mitochondrial DNA

Answer

  1. Protein coat

Explanation:

Viruses are intracellular obligatory parasitic, self - replicating non - cellular, sub - microscopic organisms.

They lack cellular organelles like ribosomes, mitochondria, etc.

A simple virus particle, often called as a virion, consists of a nucleic acid core of genetic material, enclosed within a protein coat (capsid).

The capsid consists of several identical protein subunits known as capsomeres.

The amount of protein content differs in different types of viruses.
