Generally speaking, the virus is a smallest living organism that consists of one DNA strand (or RNA), tightly wrapped in protein and lipids (fat molecules). Of course, some species of virus are larger than others. Nevertheless, a viral organism consists of a relatively limited amount of molecules, and it is ABSOLUTELY without a cellular structure and void of any cellular components. It can ONLY replicate inside a living cell. It is a parasitic organism by nature, and in order for it to complete its life cycle, it must utilize cellular structures of another organism. A virus cannot replicate independently. There is even a debate among microbiologists, as to whether or not it can meet the definition of life. Yeast, on the other hand, is a species of fungi. It can be unicellular (one cell) or can form multicellular clusters. Regardless, even unicellular yeast organism is BY FAR larger than any given viral particle.
A virus is NOT a life form. It is NOT living in any sense. Viruses are much smaller than yeast.
Yeast is much bigger than a virus, however the largest microorganism is the multinucleate slime mold cell, a type of fungus. Some of these cells can be seen with the naked eye.
a virus is not a microorganism
A yeast cell is the biggest followed by the bacteruim then the virus The virus is easily the smallest it can be up to 1/10000th of the size of a bacterium! A bacteria is about 1.8 millionth of a meter a yeast cell is about a 12 millionth of a meter which means the yeast cell is more than 6x larger than a bacterium!
Yeast
Yeast is a type of fungi.

The YEAST cell is by far the biggest cell out of a BACTERIUM and a VIRUS.... I know this 'cos it was on my science homework and 'cos i found it on another website which gave me the urge to put it here since the question hadn't been answered....x
It is a virus called the Hep A virus.
i think its yeast
Yeast infection is caused by fungi, not by a virus.
