The similarities of viruses and bacteria (plural of bacterium) are that both have DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) or RNA (ribonucleic acid) within their cell walls. Both cause disease, which is a big problem.
Many viruses are parasitic like the bacterias. In addition, viruses have RNA or DNA, although slightly different than that of bacteria.
both bacteria and virus have either RNA or DNA
Both are very small and both can cause disease. Hope this helps! both are microscopic
viruses reproduce, have dna, and can cause harm to humans. however bacteria are organisms and viruses are just particles.
both micro organizams and singled celled also they reproduce asexualy witch means they muboth multipy by creating a clone of them self
they both have genetic material
they are germs
Bacteria and Viruses have DNA in common.
Both have dna and rna
The mimivirus
It is not. HIV is a virus. It has a completely different make-up from a bacteria. The most important difference between a bacteria and a virus is that a virus does not have the ability to replicate on its own. It needs a host, another cell, to reproduce, unlike bacteria which can reproduce on their own.
A virus that infects bacteria is called a bacteriophage
Bacteria and virus
Bacteriophage is the virus that infects bacteria
Similarities:1.Both are very small (measured in nanometers)2.Both can cause disease, or are pathogens. Although some bacteria do not cause disease.
Bacteria is live and a virus is not. This also means that only a bacteria infection or illness can be killed with antibiotics.
a human cells have DNA and bacteria has plasmid
The mimivirus
A pathogenic bacterium is alive while a virus is not.

Bacteria are not dependent on a host. :)
Bacteria has both DNA and RNA where as Virus has either DNA or RNA
This is a virus!
