l. Which of the following statements about paramyxoviruses is FALSE? A) The N protein protects the genome from ribonuclease digestion B) The N protein can bind to a variable number of nucleotides in the genome. C) Naked genome-length RNA is never found within the cell. D) The RNA-dependent RNA polymerase is a virion protein E) Every protein coded for in the genome is packaged into the virion

Solution

Paramyxovirus are enveloped particles with an average diameter of 120-300 nm. The complete virion consists of a nucleiocapsid and an envelop. The nucleocpsid is tube like structure. It contain one molecule of single stranded negative sense RNA.

answer .... C

Both viruses have negative strand genome. Both are enveloped viron. But rhibodoviron have RNA directed RNA polymerise.

answer... E
