answer
goes to nucleus,some integrate with cells genome,transcribe RNA using viral DNA,translation takes place and proteins go back to nucleus,the VDNA replicates and joins the proteins for assembly
question

answer

Goes directly to ribosomes functioning as mrna,

produces proteins, uses vrna polymerase to

change from + to - to produce more +ssrna

What three enzymes do retro viruses come with?
answer

Reverse transcriptase(transcribe DNA from RNA)

Integrase(puts vgenome into cells genome)

Protease(cleaves RT and integrase)

question
Explain how a retrovirus reproduces
answer
RT attaches to the rna and transribes dna,then replicates it,INT puts the DNA into cells genome,the cell transcribes the dna and makes rna,through translation proteins,and the enzymes are produced , this joins some rna left over from transcription and is assembled then protease cleaves RT from INT activating virus
question

answer
comes with vrna polymerase that turns it into +ssrna then goes to ribosomes as mrna
