Which features suggests that viruses are non-living microbes?

They replicate using a host cell's metabolic machinery.


What type of cells do not typically replicate?

Most nerve cells do not typically replicate.


Do all microbes have plasmids?

No, not all microbes have plasmids. Plasmids are small, circular pieces of DNA that are separate from the microbial genome. While plasmids are common in many bacteria, they are not present in all microbes.


Names of microbes?

Microbes are prokaryotic organisms, meaning they have no cell nucleus and they have the ability to replicate themselves. Microbes can be classified into 5 categories, namely: archaea, bacteria, fungi, protest, viruses, and prions.


Which of the three main types of microbes are the smallest?

Viruses are the smallest of the three main types of microbes, which also include bacteria and fungi. Viruses are much smaller than bacteria and fungi and are considered acellular, as they cannot survive or replicate without a host cell.


What are the two types of microbes?

The two main types of microbes are bacteria and viruses. Bacteria are single-celled organisms that can live in various environments. Viruses are not considered living cells and can only replicate inside the cells of other organisms.


What group of microbes are smallest in size?

The smallest group of microbes are viruses, which are not considered living organisms because they cannot replicate on their own and rely on host cells to multiply. They are much smaller than bacteria, archaea, and fungi.


Which microbes do not need to multiply inside of living cells?

Some examples of microbes that do not need to multiply inside of living cells are bacteria, yeast, and certain fungi. These microbes are able to replicate and grow outside of host cells in various environments such as soil, water, and food.


What types of microbes are caused by flu?

Actually, the flu is the disease (influenza) and the microbes are what cause the disease, not the other way around. The pathogens ("microbes") responsible for the infectious disease called influenza are viruses.Viruses are submicroscopic-sized particles that can attach to the cells of a host person, animal, plant or bacteria (they are very small even compared to bacteria and other pathogens that are called microbes*) and replicate within the cells. This eventually destroys the cells and makes us sick until our bodies can use the immune system's processes to get rid of it.* Not all scientists classify viruses as microbes since they are submicroscopic and are non-living organisms.


What is microbes and what is thermophilic and mesophilic microbes?

Microbes are organisms that are composed of only one solitary cell or a cell which lives in a colony with other cells. Thermophilic microbes are organisms that prefer to live in areas with a temperature that is higher than the normal.Mesophilic are these microbes that prefer areas with moderate temperature.


What is the name of a cell that generally does not replicate?

Nerves have been proven to not replicate, you get one set that grows with you for your entire life.


WHAT ARE 4 MICROBES?

Four examples of microbes include bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa. Bacteria are single-celled organisms that can be beneficial or pathogenic. Viruses are tiny infectious agents that require a host cell to replicate. Fungi, which include yeasts and molds, can decompose organic matter, while protozoa are single-celled eukaryotes often found in water and soil.
