In nature, a virus can't replicate itself it replicate only with the help of the host cell.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The replication of the virus comprises six steps they are attachment, penetration, uncoating, replication, assembly, and release.
  • Due to the absence of the reproductive organelles, the virus replicates only with the help of the host cell. They use the organelles of the host cell to replicate and injects its genetic material into a cell during attachment and penetration.
  • After uncoating replication occurs. During the replication of the virus in a host cell, it produces a protein called the capsid. The total replicate cycle of a virus along with the host is called the lysogenic cycle.
