On April 19, 2011, Map Maker was added to the American version of Google Maps, allowing any viewer to edit and add changes to Google Maps. This provides Google with local map updates almost in real time instead waiting for digital map data companies to release more infrequent updates. 2012
The basic process of viral infection and virus replication occurs in 6 main steps. 1  Adsorption-virus binds to the host cell. 2  Penetration-virus injects its genome into host cell. 3  Viral Genome Replication-viral genome replicates using the host's cellular machinery.
Like many living things, viruses live to reproduce. They find a host cell, replicate themselves, and leave the host cell with all of their new copies. One method of reproducing and fleeing a cell is the lytic cycle. In a lytic cycle, the virus reproduces thousands to millions of times in just a few hours, then weakens the cell wall enough that the cell will lyse, or burst open, setting the army of new viruses free.
