  VIRUS STRUCTURE AND CLASSIFICATION Virus are obligate intercellular  organism sub microscopic entity consisting of a single nucleic acid surrounded by a protein coat and capable of replication only within the living cells  STRUCTURE: size: 10-100 nm; 1/10th size of bacterium . shape : spherical genome material : DNA OR RNA; never both  protective shell:    capsid : Its made of any identical protein subunit they protect gentic material ,symmetrically organised. Envelope :  lipid containing membrane that surrounds the virus particle located outside the capsid acquired during replication . CLASSIFICATION OF VIRUS: A) BASED ON MORPHOLOGY B) CHEMICAL COMPOSITION C)      MODE OF REPLICATION THANKS FOR READING  NOTE:please feel free to comment down your valuable suggestion below .
