Page history last edited by TennysonG 3 years, 2 months ago

Virus are likely to be similar to bacteria.

Virus can be sometimes harmful to you, so stay away from it!

Examples of common human diseases caused by viruses include the common cold, influenza, chickenpox and cold sores.

Virus(s) can be attached to bacteria! 

The origins of viruses are unclear: some may have evolved from plasmids—pieces of DNA that can move between cells—others may have evolved from bacteria.
