What are some of the deadlies Viruses and Bacterias?  And what is deadlier between bacteria and viruses?

As a general rule viruses are more deadly, more infectious, and harder to cure.  Some bacteria like Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Tuberculosis), Bacillus anthracis (Anthrax), Yersina pestis (Black Plague) can all be more deadly than a common cold (Rhinovirus).  But viruses not bacteria are what occupy the highest level of containment, level four.  Viruses like small pox.

There are differnet kinds of viruses.Some viruses could affect the system files and casue the system to behave unexpectedly.While ohers could write corrupt data to your hard disk and try to steal information.

The worst risk is TB. Most bacteria and viruses are killed by exposure to air for long periods of time, but not TB. Believe me, you don't want to get TB. Nasty disease.

The study of bacteria reveals ways to prevent infections, slow them so ppl have more time, and even cure them. We could all die without it. Bacterial infections are becoming more common as time passes.

In general, molds (more properly fungi) and bacteria are decomposing organisms - they cause things to rot, to decay, to decompose. If we didn't have them around, we'd all be knee deep in dead things. \n\nTheir life-style may be similar but their biology is very different - they belong to two separate kingdoms of life. Bacteria are single-celled prokaryotes that reproduce by fission, fungi are multi-cellular eukaryotes that reproduce with spores.

Viruses are in a nether world. They are neither dead nor alive, and they certainly don't belong to a phylum or a class.

Antibiotics work on the protein in a cell's membrane, usually denaturing the proteins and causing the cell to rupture.\n\nVirus do not have a cell membrane. They are not actually living, but instead take over the operations within a host cell. In order for an antibiotic to work on a virus, it would have to rupture the cell membrane of the host cell. In that case, the antibiotic would be toxic, and probably more deadly than the viral infection.

What about molecular virology?  It's very fasinating, very complicated, and what you discover can help save lives.  It's anything BUT boring, and it's hard, a thing I LOVE about it.

well...\nu could talk about how little we know about whether organisms like bacteria and viruses have consicousness and a probable effect that might happen if we change their genomes . we dont really know whether those kind of organisms have an "individuality" or anything, so thats where i would start off from.\nhope this helped

Most scientists believe that viruses are not living.  They are classified as non-living particles.  There is a small faction who believe they may be alive however this is contentious.  \n\nThey do exhibit some signs of life such as reproducing, and moving but they do not breathe or respire, they don't consume and they don't excrete.

First off jamesmusik84's is completely wrong. Please don't consider any of it. The second answer is along the right path, except I have no idea what the reference to antibiotic is suggesting and some viruses have RNA genomes but many more have DNA genomes. And as far as bacteria go, both RNA and DNA are present inside there cells.\n\nSo, the answer to your question. Let's start this way: Bacteria are small single-celled organisms. Unllike eukaryotic cells (like the ones that make up animals, plants, fungi and many single-celled organisms such as yeasts) which package their genetic material (DNA) in membrane structures called nuclei, bacteria (which are also referred to as prokaryotes) don't have a nucleus. Bacteria also don't have other organelles which are found in eukaryotes, such as endoplasmic reticulum, mitochandria, chloroplasts, golgi bodies, etc. But like eukaryotes, bacteria do have an outer lipid membrane.\n\nSo, you can think of bacteria of little fluid filled sacs. Along with eukaryotic, bacteria are an example of "cells" which are the smallest unit of living things on earth.\n\nViruses, on the other hand, do not have an outer membrane. They don't the capacity to make their own proteins. They don't have the capacity ot replicate or metabolize on their own -- of which bacteria (and eukaryotes) do. It's for this reason that we don't consider viruses "living" things. Viruses have to "infect" a cell -- injecting its genetic material inside -- and use the cell's metabolic machinery to reproduce.\n\nViruses are essentially small protein "capsules" that have a piece of genetic information packaged inside. Because viruses are required to infect a cell to propogate themselves, they are classified as obligate intra-cellular pathogens.\n\nViruses tend to only infect specific cell types. Some infect bacteria. Some infect plants. Others infect animals. The specificity of what a virus can infect is goes beyond whether they can infect bacteria, plants or animals. Usually viruses have to infect a very specific animal, plant or bacteria. And even in the case of viruses that infect animals and plants, not only do the infect specif animals, they are usually limited to a few cell types whithin that animal.\n\nTake HIV for example: to the best of my knowledge HIV only infects humans (i.e. the "H" in HIV -- Human Immunodeficiency Virus). But it doesn't just infect any human cell. HIV only infects white blood cells -- specifically a class of white blood cells called T cells (there are many other "classes" of white blood cells including such things as B cells, NK cells, neutrophils, basophils, eosinophils and macrophages).\n\nI hope this sheds some light on the matter.

Viruses themselves are not alive. Most virologists consider them non-living, as they do not meet all the criteria of the generally accepted definition of life. They are similar to obligate intracellular parasites as they lack the means for self-reproduction outside a host cell, but unlike parasites, viruses are generally not considered to be true living organisms. Among other factors, viruses do not possess a cell membrane or metabolise on their own.\n\ncompter viruses are not alive either.

Bacteria are self-supporting life forms.  They live.  Viruses are non-living hijackers that have to hijack other cells to live.  They are just DNA bits or possibly RNA, and by themselves they don't do anything.  But they get into cells and re-program the cells to make more viruses, instead of doing whatever that cell was doing before.

Bacteriophage lierally means "bacteria-eating" it describes a virus that infects bacteria.  You might want to look up lytic and lysogenic cycles, they will explain the "life cycle" of a virus, but im not sure you can really put a time on it, it depends on the type of virus and the type of bacteria...

viruses can infect bacteria. bacteria on the other hand, are too big to have any effect on viruses. \n\nbacteria are capable of self-repoduction, while viruses depend on its host cell for replication.

if you get sick then there is not necessarily bacteria but some virus making you sick, you dont get sick just because God thinks its funny and actually the temp and all that dont have anything to do w/it you have to pick up a virus or a "bug" its just that they are more abundant in those settings and   because those settings bring down your immune system also because theres  more work for it to do in the winter time or allergy season.
