Answer:
Viruses are tinier than bacteria. In fact, the largest virus is smaller than the smallest bacterium. All viruses have is a protein coat and a core of genetic material, either RNA or DNA. Unlike bacteria, viruses can't survive without a host.

Answer:
Bacteria are single-celled organisms that live all around us. Most bacteria aren't harmful, and some are even protective. However, a small percentage can be harmful and cause illness.
Viruses are parasitic, which means they need a live host in order to survive. Viruses infect the cells of living beings, including humans, and can cause diseases like the common cold or AIDS. Although most viruses are potentially harmful, some can actually be beneficial.
Bacteria are not usually harmful, but viruses are.
Bacteria are living organisms. They reproduce by splitting in half, and some can double their numbers every 20 minutes. That's why, although they are small, bacteria can have a big impact on our health. Humans have trillions of bacteria in and on our bodies, and most of them keep us healthy by supporting bodily functions like digestion.
