D. Carbohydrate and nucleic acid
Answer» A. Protein and lipid
Explanation: Virus particles (known as virions) consist of two or three parts: the genetic material made from either DNA or RNA, long molecules that carry genetic information, a protein coat that protects these genes, and in some cases an envelope of lipids that surrounds the protein coat when they are outside a cell. The shapes of viruses range from simple helical and icosahedra forms to more complex structures.
