The life cycle of a #virus typically includes the following stages:

Attachment – Virus binds to the host cell surface.

Penetration – Virus or its genetic material enters the host cell.

Uncoating – Viral capsid is removed, releasing the genetic material.

Replication – Viral genome is replicated using host machinery.

Assembly – New viral particles are assembled.

Release – New viruses are released, often destroying the host cell.
