Notes

viruses contain RNA as its genetic material, have bacteriophages, have a specific shape proteins on outside surface, has nucleic acids surrounded by a protein capsid, built primarily of proteins and nucleic acids, nonliving particles, HIV, influenza, common cold
Cells contain DNA as main genetic material, has a nucleus, creates itself through mitosis, contain mechanisms needed to go through protein synthesis, has mutations occur in the genetic material, is more complex than a virus, includes streptococcus which causes strep throat in people, E. Coli helps in digestion, bacteria, tuberculosis, diptheria, and gangrene
both have a lipid bilayer membrane, some types of these can cause diseases, contain genetic material, are destroyed by white blood cells in the immune system
Viruses are particles of nucleic acid, protein and sometimes lipid
they're none-living because they can only reproduce by infecting living cells and the living cell dies; neither prokaryotes nor eukaryotes (no cellular organization)
viruses can be seen in a variety of shapes
viral diseases can't be treated with antibiotics (like bacteria) and can only be prevented using vaccines
Bacteria builds resistance due to over exposure of antibiotics
examples of viral diseases include AIDS (HIV), flu, and shingles
