cells have certain characteristics that need to be full filled, a virus does NOT fill these criteria thus they are considered this

Bacteria are very numerous, there are more bacterial cells in your mouth then people on the planet. What are the 3 basic shapes of bacteria?
[TAKE 200 POINTS FROM ANOTHER TEAM]
cocci, bacillius, spirilium

decomposers
300
A virus contains very important DNA inside, what is the inner most protective layer of a virus?
capsid
300
my experiment helped deal a death blow to spontaneous generation
Louise Pasteur

in the latin im called this because of my stick or rod shape
Bacillus
300
i have the ability to change gears and speed up or down and even reverse
flagellar motor

bacteriophage
400
discovered that each type of germ caused a specific disease
Robert Koch

i can attach easily to a host due to my many faces
polyhedral
400
virus immediately overwrites a cells genetic material and quickly multiplies in a cell
Lytic cycle
500
Name three different ways bacteria benefit our planet
decomposers, produce oxygen, make yogurt, nitrogen fixation
aid plants in root growth, breakdown sewage,
produce some antibiotics
500
when a virus binds to the membrane of a cell fully incorporates itself to the membrane to work its way inside the host cell this is
endocytosis

I realized that the formation of pus was due to a bacterial infection
Joseph Lister
