Viruses Living or Non-Living

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rpj0emEGShQ

Virus has DNA and RNA. It also doesn't have cells.

Viruses don't reproduce them-selfs because they need cells to make copies of each other by sending DNA to the Nucleus to create RNA and same copies of each other.

They don't develop unless they were just produced by a cell.

Viruses effect the environment but they are not effected that much. Unless the immune system kills them.

Great Movie about Mitosis

This article "Scientists Revolutionize Electron Microscope: New Method Could Create Highest Resolution Images Eve" talks about scientist making a better electron microscope. Thanks to these scientists we can see things better through a microscope. In these new microscopes people can see great images of live cells without having to dye them. This new method is called electron ptychography. Some plans are being made to take this fairly new technology to the moon.


I think that this microscope is great and super important invention. If this microscope evolves maybe we could see what are quarks made out of. Also we could have closer looks at cell and have more information about them. This could also help us see how some viruses attack the animal and plant cell. This microscope is really cool and interesting.
