VIROLOGY
VIROLOGY IS A STUDY OF VIRUSES.
IT MAINLY FOCUSES ON THEIR
STRUCTURE, EVOLUTION, WAYS OF
SPREADING INFECTION,
INTERACTION WITH HOST,
REPRODUCTION AND DISEASES
THEY CAUSE.
WHAT IS VIROLOGY?
VIRUS IS A MICROSCOPIC AND
INFECTIOUS AGENT
CONSISTING OF NUCLEIC ACID
MOLECULE ON PROTIEN COAT
AND CAPABLE OF MULTIPLYING
THE CELLS WITHIN THE HOST.
WHAT IS A VIRUS?
CLASSIFICATION OF VIRUSES
VIRUSES ARE MAINLY CLASSIFIED
INTO TWO TYPES:
1) DNA
i) double stranded DNA
ii) single stranded DNA
1) RNA
i) double stranded RNA
