Summary

Types of viruses.

This illustration depicts three types of viruses: a bacterial virus, otherwise called a bacteriophage (left center); an animal virus (top right); and a retrovirus (bottom right). Viruses depend on the host cell that they infect to reproduce. When found outside of a host cell, viruses, in their simplest forms, consist only of genomic nucleic acid, either DNA or RNA (depicted as blue), surrounded by a protein coat, or capsid.
