Sia ? 4 years, 11 months ago

Virus is an obligate intracellular parasite which can reproduce only by invading and taking over other cells as they lack the cellular machinery for self reproduction. Viroids are subviral, smallest known agents of infectious disease. The term viroid was coined by T.O

Viroids are free RNA molecules of low molecular weight without any protein coat while viruses can have either RNA or DNA molecules encapsulated in a protein coat. Viroids are smaller in size than viruses.
