They both have a genetic molecule that provides a recipe for their reproduction.
All retroviruses share the characteristic of having RNA as their genetic material, which is converted into DNA through the enzyme reverse transcriptase. Once in DNA form, the viral genetic material can integrate into the host cell's genome.
they can only reproduce be infecting living cells.
All viruses need another organism in order to reproduce
All viruses need another organism in order to reproduce
They use human cells to produce more of the viral organisms.
They both have DNA for multiplying
protein and nucleic acid. and capsid
Retroviruses are single-stranded RNA viruses that use the enzyme reverse transcriptase to convert their RNA genome into DNA. This DNA is then integrated into the host cell's genome and can be transcribed and translated to produce new virus particles. Examples of retroviruses include HIV and HTLV.
Retroviruses contain RNA as their genetic material, which needs to be converted into DNA in order to integrate into the host genome. Reverse transcriptase is the enzyme responsible for this conversion, a crucial step for the virus to replicate and proliferate efficiently.
Retroviruses are viruses that use reverse transcriptase to convert their RNA genome into DNA, which is then integrated into the host cell's genome. This process allows the virus to replicate using the host cell's machinery.
Retroviruses are a class of RNA virus that use Reverse transcription to convert their RNA to DNA for their infection.
Many things: ionizing radiation, free radicals, various chemicals, copying errors, retroviruses, etc.
yes retroviruses cause hepatitis b,they are RNA virus .
Retroviruses are a specific class of virus that infect animals and people by writing their genetic code into the DNA of the animal or human host. Some (but not all) retroviruses cause cancer, either by directly interfering with a part of the host's DNA that prevents cancer or by encouraging the expression of a part of the host's DNA that starts or enhances cancer.

retroviruses
Retroviruses reverse the central dogma of biology, which states that DNA is transcribed into RNA. Through an enzyme called reverse transcriptase, retroviruses have RNA as their genetic material, and this RNA is transcribed into DNA-- this is what i got for the same question (my bio homework hope its right)
Evolution is origin of retroviruses .
retroviruses
retroviruses attack the dna
They are not part of any kingdom as they are not alive.
retroviruses
An antiretroviral is a drug which combats infection by retroviruses.
