Bratwurst (German: [ËbÊaËtvÊÉÌ¯st] ( listen)) is a type of German sausage made from veal, pork or beef. The name is derived from the Old High German BrÃ¤twurst, from brÃ¤t-, finely chopped meat, and Wurst, sausage, although in modern German it is often associated with the verb braten, to pan fry or roast.
Where do Viruses live? Viruses, like bacteria are found almost everywhere; in the soil, in the air, on surfaces or in animals and plants. They are looking for a host organism to infect so that they can use the machinery in the cell to multiply and create more viruses. Viruses are choosy about what they infect; plant viruses will only plants, some viruses only infect bacteria whilst others infect animals.
Viruses depend on the host cells that they infect to reproduce. When found outside of host cells, viruses exist as a protein coat or capsid, sometimes enclosed within a membrane. The capsid encloses either DNA or RNA which codes for the virus elements. While in this form outside the cell, the virus is metabollically inert; examples of such forms are pictured below.
