colony growth characteristics

Hosts infected

Capsid shape

Disease symptoms

presence or absence of envelop

presence or absence of capsid shape

Explanation:

The characteristics that can be utilized when classifying/categorizing viruses are :

Type of nucleic acid

Strandness of type of nucleic acid (positive /negative)

colony growth characteristics

Hosts infected

Capsid shape

Disease symptoms

presence or absence of envelop

presence or absence of capsid shape

The Remaining two categories i.e Gram stain category and fermentation of different sugars cannot be used to classify or categorize viruses but they can be applied for the categorization of Bacteria
