The genome of paramyxoviruses consists of:: (A) Single stranded segmented RNA, (B) Single stranded non-segmented RNA, (C) Double stranded segmented DNA, (D) Double stranded non-segmented DNA
Answer is B. Paramyxoviruses: Parainfluenza virus 1. Parainfluenza virus contains a single-stranded, nonsegmented, negative- sense RNA genome with nucleoproteins P and L. It is surrounded by a helical nucleocapsid, which contains glycoprotein spikes. Ohomyxovirus - Single stranded segmented RNA. Rotavirus - Double stranded segmented RNA. Segmental RNA is seen in: B: Bunyaviridae I: Influenza R: Reoviridae A: Arenaviridae
