Question

Viruses that infect the hyperthermophilic Archaea tend to contain genomes that are composed of
A) ssDNA.
B) dsDNA.
C) ssRNA.
D) dsRNA.

Accepted Answer

Viruses that infect hyperthermophilic Archaea tend to have genomes composed of double-stranded DNA. This is because the Archaea themselves have genomes composed of double-stranded DNA, and viruses tend to have genomes that are similar to their host's genome.
