Yes. Virus do infect bacteria. They are called bacteriophages. (bacteria eaters)
Viral and bacterial infections are both spread in basically the same ways. A person with a cold can spread the infection by coughing and/or sneezing. Bacteria or viruses can be passed on by touching or shaking hands with another person.Feb 5, 2014Found on Netdocter.
No, viruses do not grow in the same way that bacteria or fungi do. They need a host cell to replicate and spread. Once inside a host cell, viruses use the cell's machinery to make copies of themselves.
Bacteria are not classified by the number of chromosomes, or the type of mitochondria.
Yes, bacteria can be infected by viruses called bacteriophages. Bacteriophages are specific to infecting bacteria and can inject their genetic material into a bacterial cell, causing it to replicate and produce more viruses. This process eventually leads to the lysis, or bursting, of the bacterial cell, releasing more viruses to infect other bacteria.
It is easier to make drugs that fight bacteria because bacteria are prokaryotic cells with distinct structures that can be targeted by antibiotics, whereas viruses are not fully living organisms and rely on host cells to replicate, making them harder to target without harming host cells. Additionally, bacteria have more varied metabolic pathways and cellular processes that can be targeted by drugs, while viruses have simpler structures and are harder to develop drugs against.

There is not only one way for them to be contracted, there is every virus or bacteria has a way they dont all infect one person the same way on this planet.
Antibiotics are medicines that cure infections. They have no effect on viruses.
yes a virus is way smaller
By inhaling contaminated droplets.

they all have different thingd in them
Well there are lots of helpful, symbiotic bacteria in your saliva that help kill lots of harmful bacteria and viruses; so in a way, yes.
Because the way antibiotics treat those symptoms is by killing the bacteria that cause them. If the symptoms are caused by viruses, then antibiotics can't help since they are not made to be able to "kill" viruses, just bacteria. Flu viruses are not really living organisms like bacteria are. So viruses must be inactivated rather than killed. Antibiotics can neither kill nor inactivate viruses. They are created to be used to kill only specific bacteria, they do not kill every kind of bacteria, either. That is why there are so many different kinds of antibiotics. Antibiotics can treat flu-like symptoms caused by some bacteria, because the right antibiotics can kill bacteria. So although flu like symptoms are similar to those of the flu, they are caused by different microbes so are not cured in the same way.
Transduction is the type of genetic recombination in bacteria that involves DNA transfer by viruses. In this process, bacteriophages (viruses that infect bacteria) transfer bacterial DNA from one bacterium to another.
