I wouldn't call bacteriophages parasites, but yes they are viruses which infect bacteria.
False. Not all members of the domain Bacteria are parasites. Bacteria can also include beneficial or harmless organisms that do not parasitize other organisms.
False. B cells primarily target pathogens that are present in body fluids such as blood and lymph, but they can also be effective against viruses and bacteria that are present in tissues and other parts of the body.
True. Viruses are not considered alive and require a host cell to replicate, while bacteria are single-celled organisms capable of independent replication. Additionally, viruses contain genetic material either in the form of DNA or RNA, whereas bacteria have their genetic material in the form of DNA.
No
Bacteria preferentially utilize lactose as a carbon source.
False. Not all members of the domain Bacteria are parasites. Bacteria can also include beneficial or harmless organisms that do not parasitize other organisms.
That is true. Bacteria respond to medications (antibiotics) and viruses do not.
Yes, The largest virus is smaller then the smallest bacteria.
False. B cells primarily target pathogens that are present in body fluids such as blood and lymph, but they can also be effective against viruses and bacteria that are present in tissues and other parts of the body.
False. Pathogens can include a variety of organisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites that can cause disease in their hosts.
True. Viruses are not considered alive and require a host cell to replicate, while bacteria are single-celled organisms capable of independent replication. Additionally, viruses contain genetic material either in the form of DNA or RNA, whereas bacteria have their genetic material in the form of DNA.
False. Most viruses are so small that they cannot be seen with a standard light microscope. They are much smaller than bacteria and are typically observed using electron microscopes.
False
viruses
False. Fever is often a sign of infection, as it is the body's natural response to fight off pathogens such as bacteria and viruses. While there are other causes of fever, including inflammatory conditions and certain medications, it is commonly associated with infections.
No. Antibiotics only treat bacteria - and each antibiotic has a different group of bacteria it can treat. Antivirals such as acyclovir, foscarnet, and ganciclovir treat some viruses, and others have no treatment other than supportive therapy: fluids, fever control, etc.
No
