5.double-stranded circular DNA: SV40 and papyloma viruses
6.double-stranded linear DNA: T4 bacteriophage, herpes virus

a virus remains inactive until it attaches itself to and infects a host cells, in this case attaches itself to DNA of a host cell, which makes it a viral DNA, at some point of time the viral DNA extracts itself from the host and follows a second path, in this cycle the virus attaches itself to the surface of the host cell, it makes a hole in the cell membrane and injects DNA or RNA and then the virus is left outside the cell, so in other words DNA and RNA has its owe genetic material and it follows different paths.
