Confidence votes 61. Viruses attach to living cells by binding to the cell receptors. The receptor site is very much like a jig-saw puzzle and the virus must be shaped to fit the site and to lock in. The virus first sticks to the cell membrane of the host cell. The virus then inserts its DNA/RNA into the cell's cytoplasm.
A virus has proteins (called protein markers) on its coating (capsid), which allows the virus to attach itself to the host cell.It then injects its nucleic acid (DNA/RNA) int â¦ o the host to replace the host's genetic material.This is a step in the lytic cycle, see the related question below for more details of this entire viral replication process. More: Enveloped and non-enveloped viruses enter a host cell in two ways.The capsid or viral envelope can fuse with the host cell membrane and release the viral material into the host cell, or the virus can trick the host cell.ore: Enveloped and non-enveloped viruses enter a host cell in two ways.
