Viruses are merely few macromolecules (such as nucleic acid and protein) which combines to form a pathogenic particle.dit: a cell wall-as the name implies-is a part of a cell. Viruses are not cells. â¦ Cells are living, viruses are not.
Some viruses are also enclosed by an envelope of fat and protein molecules. In its infective form, outside the cell, a virus particle is called a virion. Each virion contains at least one unique protein synthesized by specific genes in its nucleic acid.iruses cannot generate or store energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), but have to derive their energy, and all other metabolic functions, from the host cell. They also parasitize the cell for basic building materials, such as amino acids, nucleotides, and lipids (fats).
