400
Viruses are considered host-specific because _____.
Viruses can only infect specific hosts. For example, the tobacco mosaic virus can only infect the tobacco plant.

Identify the type of cell shown below and cite your evidence.
What is a eukaryotic cell (unicellular protist)? This cell has a nucleus and membrane bound organelles such chloroplasts.
400
Describe how viruses cause disease.
Viruses inject the host cell with genetic material such as DNA or RNA that then takes over the cell. The virus can immediately takes over the cells and uses the cell machinery to make new copies of itself. Eventually, the new viruses are released when the cell breaks apart or lysis. In some cases, the viral DNA or RNA remains in the cell and is dormant for a while and then makes copies of itself.

Give an example of TWO ways that bacteria are helpful to humans.
Bacteria can be used to:
1.) make cheese and yogurt
2.) clean up oil spills
3.) purify water
4.) make drugs
5.) extract needed nutrients and vitamins from food you eat

USING CR RED HOG, explain why viruses are considered nonliving. BE SPECIFIC.
Viruses are considered nonliving because viruses do NOT have all 8 characteristics of living things. Some but not all viruses contain DNA. All viruses evolve and reproduce, but only can reproduce inside a host cell. Viruses are not cells, do not respond to stimuli, undergo homeostasis, obtain or use energy or grow/develop.

Bacterial & Viral Prevention
Wash hands, store food in fridge, sterizilize with heat, cover mouth when cough
Vaccination
Bacterial Treatment - Antibiotics
Viral Treatment - Antiviral Drugs
