Viruses are obligatory intracellular microorganisms that live inside cells. They use components of the nucleic acid and protein synthetic machinery of the host to replicate and spread. Viruses typically infect various cell types by using normal cell surface receptors to enter the cells. This is an example of ______ immunity to viruses.
