What part of the cell is the most common threat to a host organism caused by invading virus

This either attaches the virus to the host cell or dissolves the membrane letting the virus into the host cell. The viral enzymes(enzymes are again chemical compounds) multiply the viral dna copies and viral protiens. These are new viruses. These new viruses breakout of the cell to infect other cells.

dna damages cause changes in the structure of the genetic material and prevents the replication mechanism from functioning and performing properly. dna damage and mutation have different biological consequences. while most dna damages can undergo dna repair, such repair is not 100% efficient.

c.) polymerase chain reaction

- "unlike the original dna fingerprinting method, dna profiling does not use restriction enzymes to cut the dna. instead it uses the polymerase chain reaction (pcr)? to produce many copies of specific str sequences. pcr is an automated procedure that generates lots of copies of a specific sequence of dna."
