Viruses (biological)
A virus is a small infectious agent that can replicate only inside the living cells of organisms. Viruses display a wide diversity of shapes and sizes, called morphologies. Generally viruses are much smaller than bacteria. Most viruses that have been studied have a diameter between 10 and 300 nanometres.

dont worrie! your cat didnt catch your cold,and you cant catch its! and they probobly have hairballs
Do you also believe the Coronavirus is a hoax?
nope. it is very real. yes, there is a 98 ish percent recovery rate, but that doesnt mean u should not wear ur mask. u have to prevent it from getting to other ppl too, including the vulnerable such as the elderly and those w/preexisting conditions
What is the reason that viruses exist?
Simple as they are and diverse as we will newer be:
they are for special propose: to control and regulate things that human brain is not able to recognize.
Viruses exist because there is always something that that tries to "take over" other life. Bacteria, fungi, etc.
Is a pathogen a type of virus that only kills bacteria?
No. The word pathogen means to "make disease". The type of virus that kills only bacteria are called bacteriophages which means "bacteria eaters".
Why sometimes make and use enlarged models of very small things such as viruses?
These models allow a student to "see" exactly what these very tiny particles look like.
if you carry bacteria in your system a lot yes
and if you don't wash your hands and where a glove and a mask.
Are all Coronavirus deaths caused by the Coronavirus alone?
According to coronavirus-eyes and WHO coronavirus is not the only reason to die. Those people who died in coronavirus already have diabetics, cancer, and so many problem. Their age also almost die.
Coronavirus is more deadly for old people speacially 80 years old. And research say that it is more deadly for smokers.
Does influenza A virus infect turtles?
No. Most viruses target certain cells. In the case of influenza A, some mammals (including humans) and some birds have been infected.
Can mosquitos transmit rabies?
In my opinion i think it can transmit since mosquitos bite warm blooded animals and some warm blooded animals are rabid....so if he bite a rabid animal then theres a chance the mosquito of being rabid because rabid animals has their blood also rabid ....but i think its only a minimal chance because they dont actually target animals they like human flesh or blood
Culture medium is a gel or liquid that aids in the growth of cells and microorganisms. The type of culture media that is used can vary.
What are pros and cons of destroying a virus?
Pro :
Its eradicated.
Con :
It may be needed in research of other viruses.
Yes- Bacterial viruses are called bacteriophages. Some examples are T4 and T7 phages. They are complex DNA viruses that attach themselves to the cell surface and then inject their DNA to the inside of the bacteria.
Bacteria have enzymes called restriction enzymes that cleave DNA at specific sites called restriction sites. These enzymes are the bacterium's defense against phages.
It's unusual to have zoster for a year, so I hope she is continuing to see a physician. I'm not sure if you meant that you were concerned all of the problems mentioned above were linked to one another, but I'm assuming you did not. Here are some suggestions:
1. Make sure her pain is under control; zoster, if she truly still has it, can be a very painful condition. Make sure her pain is being addressed by her physician.
2. Hearing loss can come about from different conditions, be it from normal aging, medications, loud noise, etc. See an ENT to be tested to see if the hearing loss is the type that can be helped by hearing aides or if there is anything else that can be done.
3. Make sure that the person you mentioned and everyone around her does not smoke! This is crucial for someone on oxygen especially; it is still amazing to me that someone on oxygen would put a flame up to their mouth--sometimes even at the same time--which can result in explosions. But more importantly, this could certainly cause more damage.
4. Make sure that she is seeing a physician who can take time to address all of the issues (this may mean coming back for multiple appointments).
Are the plague and the flu the same?
Not even close, actually. The flu is usually a mild viral infection that affects the lungs and respiratory system, although in some people it can prove deadly. Our bodies typically can get rid the viral infection in 7 to 10 days in otherwise healthy adults.
On the other hand, if you are talking about the plague that was pandemic throughout Europe and much of Asia in the 14th century that was known as bubonic plague, it was caused by bacteria and not a virus. Our bodies can succumb rapidly to untreated severe bacterial infections. At the time, antibiotics were not yet invented and around 70% of those infected died. The bacteria that caused "Black Plague", named for the big black "blisters" (buboes) it caused, was spread by rats and is called plague bacillus, Yersinia pestis.
Is the Ebola virus a toxin or exoenzyme?
No it is a virus, (as it's name suggests).
An exoenzyme is an enzyme that is secreted by a cell and that works outside of that cell.
A toxin is a poisonous substance produced by living cells or organisms
