List three differences between the structure of HIV and the virus that causes influenza. For one of these differences, explain how the STRUCTURE is key to the FUNCTION of the virus.
In details, compare the life cycles of influenza virus and measles virus (4-5 points of contrasting).
Thank you!
Briefly describe the events leading to the synthesis of viral proteins. Begin with the genome; assume this is a negative single-stranded RNA virus (-SSRNA).
