which virus is correctly matched with its structure?\nhiv—helical shape\npolio—polyhedral shape\nebola—complex shape\nbacteriophage—enveloped shape

Answer

Brief Explanations:

  1. HIV has a spherical (icosahedral - like) structure, not helical.
  2. Poliovirus has a polyhedral (icosahedral) shape. Viruses with polyhedral shapes often have an icosahedral symmetry which is a common structure for many non - enveloped viruses like polio.
  3. Ebola virus has a filamentous (helical) structure, not complex. Complex viruses have additional structures like tails (as in bacteriophages).
  4. Bacteriophages have a complex structure with a head and tail, not an enveloped shape. Enveloped viruses have a lipid - containing envelope around their capsid.

Answer:

polio—polyhedral shape
