No, viruses come in various shapes and sizes. They can be spherical, rod-shaped, helical, or irregular in shape. The shape of a virus is determined by its protein coat and genetic material.

What shape is a virus?
The shape of viruses varies greatly. They can be shaped like small balls (spherical viruses) like strands of spaghetti (flexous viruses) rigid rods, like bullets (baciliform viruses) and like geometric shapes (isocohedral viruses) The smallest viruses can be as small as 20nm (20/1,000,000 of a mm) to as much as 2,000 nm for some flexous plant viruses.
Do all virus's have the same shape?
no
Do all cells have the same shape?
No, different cells can have different shapes depending on their function. Cells can be spherical, elongated, flat, or irregular in shape. The shape of a cell is often related to its specialized function in the body.
4 ways viruses can be classified?
Based on host specificity: viruses can be classified as either specific to a single host species or able to infect a range of hosts. According to the type of nucleic acid they contain: viruses can have DNA or RNA genomes. By their shape: viruses can be labeled as either helical, icosahedral, or complex. According to their mode of transmission: viruses can be classified as either airborne, foodborne, or bloodborne.

Are all orbits the same?
Are all orbits the same shape????
What are all sides are equal have the same length?
the shape is a regular shape if it has all the same angles and side lengths.
What is the geometric shape does a virous prefer?
Viruses have different geometrical shapes, such as helical and polyhedral shapes. A particular polyhedral shape common to many viruses is a dodecahedron shape. This is a geometric shape that has 12 sides.
What are three shapes of viruses?
For computer viruses, they have no physical shape, they are a string or program of codes that are made to effect files Regular viruses have a shape, but they are not needed as they dont effect what they do. Viruses just look like any bacterium, or in a spiderlike form.
