Question

multiple choice question for the naked virus shown in the image, the circle encloses a(n)
o dna
o spike
o capsid
o envelope

Explanation:

A naked virus lacks an outer - envelope. The capsid is the protein shell that encloses the viral genetic material (either DNA or RNA). In a naked virus, the circle would enclose the capsid which protects the genetic material. Spikes are surface - proteins for attachment and DNA is the genetic material which is inside the capsid.

Answer:

B. capsid
