At 250-300 microns(smaller than the period at the end of this sentence), dustmites are so small that bacteria and fungal hyphae can be a mouthful. We shed skin and hair, bacteria eat skin and hair,and mites devour bacteria. www4.ncsu.edu/~rrdunn/DustMiteArticle(Dunn).pdf
Adult house dust mites have a globular shape and are white. They are about 420 microns in length, males are 245 microns wide and females are 320 microns wide.
Yes, The largest virus is smaller then the smallest bacteria.
Viruses are non-living entities that show characteristics of living beings inside another living cell. Viruses consist of genetic material surrounded by protein coat. They lack organelles or membranes. Thus, they are very much smaller than bacterial cells which have membranes, and sometimes even organelles. In fact, many viruses inhabit bacterial cells. They are called bacteriophages. The smallest bacteria are in the order of .3 micrometers, while the largest viruses are in the order of 400 nanometers. A virus is smaller than bacteria A virus is smaller than bacteria
Bacteria are unicellular organisms, which is to say, a bacterium is a cell. Bacteria differ from the cells of multicellular organisms in that they are generally much smaller and less specialized.
In case of chronic smokers you get squamous metaplasia. That prevent outward expulsion of the dust particles and bacteria out of the respiratory tract. That enhances the chances of various dust related lung diseases and infections.
Bacteria are prokaryotic. Their cells are much smaller than eukaryotic cells, do not possess a nuclear membrane, nor do they have membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondria and chloroplasts.
an atom is about a trillion times smaller then a speck of dust.
Yes, viruses are smaller than bacteria.
there are some bacteria that approach the size of larger viruses but, viruses are smaller than bacteria
Bacteria is typically smaller than Eukaryotes. In fact, Eukaryotes have an organelle called the mitochondria which resemble an enveloped bacteria.
"Dust" has no plural form. It is what is known as an uncountable noun, like "flour" or "training". If you want to express that there was a lot of it you would have to say "much dust" or "many forms of dust"
Yes, The largest virus is smaller then the smallest bacteria.
No, a virus is much smaller than bacteria.
Generally speaking bacterial cells (about 2 micrometer diameter) are much smaller than eukaryotic cells (about 25 micrometer diameter). Therefore a bacterial cell is smaller.

Bacteria and viruses can breed. i.e. When bacteria breeds, they form large colonies visible to the naked eye When viruses breed, they become more deadly or mutate but are still virtually invisible to the naked eye.
