Answer:

A virus is a tiny infectious biological agent that can only replicate or duplicate inside the host cell. These infectious agents can infect all different types of living organisms ranging from animals and plants to microorganisms and archaea and bacteria.

Virions are ineffective particle or form of the virus outside of the host cell, with RNA or DNA and a protein capsid.

<h3>Composition of integument</h3>
  • Together with the underlying epidermal cells that secrete the cuticle, the cuticle and integument make up the skin.
  • The cuticle functions as the insect's exoskeleton, the location of muscle attachment, and the first line of protection against fungi, bacteria, predators, parasites, and environmental toxins, including pesticides.
  • The integument plays a role in behavior, osmoregulation, water control, eating, excretion, desiccation resistance, and as a food reserve.
  • The complexity of the structure and chemistry of an insect's integument as well as the unique ways in which it has been modified to work within its owner's environment serve as some indicators of the variety of roles that these coverings play.
