Virus multiplies in

  • A.Living tissue
  • B.Dead tissue
  • C.Culture medium
  • D.Soil

Answer: A

A virus multiplies only in living tissue.

It has no metabolism, no ribosomes and no means of making protein, so it must use a living host cell's machinery. This is why viruses cannot be grown on a culture medium as bacteria are, and are cultured in eggs or cell lines instead.
