Explanation:
Retrovirus and bacteriophage are two types of viruses. Viruses are simple organisms which consist of a core of genetic material, DNA or RNA, surrounded by a protein capsid. They require a host in order to complete their life cycle. Therefore, viruses are considered as intracellular parasites. Usually, retroviruses infect plant and animal cells and bacteriophages infect bacteria. But, retroviruses called prophages infect bacteria in rare occasions. The main difference between retrovirus and bacteriophage is that retroviruses consist of a single-stranded, positive-sense RNA molecule as their genetic material whereas bacteriophages consist of either single-stranded or double-stranded DNA or RNA genomes.
