The core of the virus is made up of nucleic acids. That makes up the genetic information in the form of RNA or DNA. The protein that surrounds the core is called a capsid. Virus structure be these four: icosahedral, enveloped, complex or helical.

The virus will attach itself to the host cell and then the virus will inject its genetic material. The host cell splits open giving out the viruses.]]> 2018-09-18 14:47:17 UTC https://padlet.com/212912/f76x02js3frl/wish/282946061 231062 https://padlet.com/212912/f76x02js3frl/wish/282960671 Bacteria is a prokaryotic organism that reproduces asexually. Bacterial reproduction often happens by binary fission which is the division of a single cell. ]]> 2018-09-18 15:04:41 UTC https://padlet.com/212912/f76x02js3frl/wish/282960671 231062 https://padlet.com/212912/f76x02js3frl/wish/283491067 The infection will occur when the viruses or bacteria enter the body and then they begin to multiply. The pathogenic microbes will challenge your immune system in any way. The bacteria and virus can also damage your cell and that is how diseases come into play.]]> 2018-09-19 15:33:25 UTC https://padlet.com/212912/f76x02js3frl/wish/283491067 212912 https://padlet.com/212912/f76x02js3frl/wish/284819187 Bacteria is bigger than viruses. Most bacteria ranges from .02 to 10 microns (0.0000079 to 0.00039 inches).

Most viruses vary from 20 nanometers to 250-400 nanometers. They measure about 500 nm in diameter and about 700-1000 in length]]> 2018-09-24 00:06:09 UTC https://padlet.com/212912/f76x02js3frl/wish/284819867 207612 https://padlet.com/212912/f76x02js3frl/wish/285185289 Virus can direct the cell machinery to produce more viruses. Most viruses have either RNA or DNA as their genetic material.
Bacteria takes over the host cell by hijacking  the cellular machinery. The bacteria Legionella grows inside bubbles within larger cells.]]> 2018-09-24 18:00:02 UTC https://padlet.com/212912/f76x02js3frl/wish/285185289 212912 https://padlet.com/212912/f76x02js3frl/wish/285563108 Bacteria can be spherical, rod-shaped, or spiral-shaped. Most bacteria have a cell wall. This gives the bacteria its shape. Bacteria is filled with ctyoplasm. This puts pressure against the wall or membrane and helps it hold its shape.]]> 2018-09-25 14:52:58 UTC https://padlet.com/212912/f76x02js3frl/wish/285563108
