Compare viral and cellular organization
A comparison table in a Melbourne HL Biology microscopy seminar shows a virus with nucleic acid and protein coat but no cytoplasm, ribosomes, or membrane-bound organelles. Explain why it is not organised like a cell. Use the diagram labels, HL model, or quantitative image evidence before answering. Enter the answer and choose the interpretation that best matches the HL biological evidence.
Worked practice: biological evidence and answer
Use the labelled biological evidence first, then connect it to the final answer.

Now write the response in full, in your own words — this is what the exam asks for. The AI marks it on the same moves you built above (focus, evidence, technique, judgement) and gives feedback on reasoning, evidence, and expression.
