Capsid - correct answer -Outer protein coat of a virus
Viral envelope - correct answer -The envelopes are typically
derived from portions of the host cell membranes (phospholipids
and proteins), but include some viral glycoproteins. They may
help viruses avoid the host immune system. Glycoproteins on the
surface of the envelope serve to identify and bind to receptor sites
on the host's membrane.
