No. Being that viruses are not a living organism, they are neither contain cells, nor are they a cell themselves. 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.
Viruses depend on the host cells that they infect to reproduce. When found outside of host cells, viruses exist as a protein coat or capsid, sometimes enclosed within a membrane. The capsid encloses either DNA or RNA which codes for the virus elements.While in this form outside the cell, the virus is metabollically inert; examples of such forms are pictured below.hen it comes into contact with a host cell, a virus can insert its genetic material into its host, literally taking over the host's functions. An infected cell produces more viral protein and genetic material instead of its usual products.
