A bacteriophage is a virus that infects bacteria. A bacteriophage, or phage for short, is a virus that infects bacteria. Like other types of viruses, bacteriophages vary a lot in their shape and genetic material.

Bacteriophages are viruses that infect bacteria but are harmless to humans. To reproduce, they get into a bacterium, where they multiply, and finally they break the bacterial cell open to release the new viruses. Therefore, bacteriophages kill bacteria.

Olegator [25]

<u>The structural differences between prokaryotes and eukaryotes:</u>

The main differences  between  the prokaryotes and eukaryotes are  the presence of nucleus in the eukaryotic cells and its absence of nuleus  in prokaryotes.

Also, prokaryotes are single-celled, so that a cell is a whole organism. On the other hand, eukaryotes are mostly multi cellular, and therefore more complex. More complex DNA is in the nucleus in eukaryotic cells, that allow them to carry out a wide range of functions. Prokaryotes, as a single cell, have the features of simple present.
