How does an enveloped virus gain/obtain/get its envelope?

Answer:

The envelope come from the host cell membrane as the virus leaves the host cell

Explanation:

A virus is an organism that is incapable of replicating on its own without infecting a living host. A virus consists of a genetic material (DNA or RNA) , a protein coat called CAPSID, and sometimes some viruses possess an envelope, which is an outer covering or enclosure. Viruses that possess this envelope are referred to as ENVELOPED VIRUS.

The virus lacks the ability to produce any structure, hence, they gain this envelope made of phospholipid from the cell membrane of the host they infect. During the infection cycle of a virus, a process called budding enables a portion of the host's plasma membrane to cover or encapsulate the virion cells, hence, making them enveloped in the process.

vlada-n [284]

Answer;

-Chitin is a structural carbohydrate that forms their exoskeleton


Explanation;

-Chitin is the main component in the exoskeletons of arthropods and crustaceans and is also in the cell walls of fungi.

-It is a linear long chain polymer consisting of repeated units of N-acetyl-glucosamine.

-The main function of the chitin-containing exoskeleton is to keep the inner soft tissue safe from any sort of injury and also prevents the delicate tissues from drying (acts as a water tight barrier against dehydration).
