Viruses and bacteria are both microscopic and can both cause disease. Viruses differ from bacteria in that all viruses are obligate parasites, which means they cannot live or survive independently, on their own, but have to live inside cells.

Viruses do not have organelles essential to life such as animal and plant cell have. A virus has no nucleus, no mitochondria, no Golgi apparatus, no endoplasmic reticulum and no ribosomes, therefore it cannot perform propagate itself.

Viruses invade cells and hijack the  cell machinery to manufacture their own virus  components. Once assembled  together, these parts form new viruses which in cases causes the cell to die.

Does any landform on Earth’s surface look the same as it did 5 million years ago? explain why or why not.
Sophie [7]

Answer:

Earth's surface didn't look much different. With few exceptions.

The global climate is cooler and drier, and seasonal, similar to modern climates. As the climate began to cool down grasslands continued to expand and forests started to dwindle in extent. In the seas, kelp forests made their first appearance and soon became one of Earth's most productive ecosystems. Water from the Atlantic Ocean poured in through the Strait of Gibraltar to deluge the Mediterranean Basin. The event is called the Zanclean flood. Parts of of southern Norway and southern Sweden that had been near sea level rose to form the Hardangervidda plateau and the South Swedish highlands.

Shorty after, the glaciations, uplift of the Rocky mountains and Panama seaway closure began to reshape the Earth.
