Prompt: Coronavirus (Covid-19) is an enveloped virus. Enveloped viruses like Covid-19 are referred to as being “enveloped” because their virus particle is surrounded by a layer that resembles a cell membrane. The “Corona” part of coronavirus comes from the appearance of the virus particles under an electron microscope. Corona refers to “crown” or “wreath.” Proteins that stick out from the surface of the virus (called spike proteins) are responsible for the crown-like appearance. Questions 1 and 2 I need help...
