B) Bacteria can be treated with antibiotics, viruses cannot.

Antibiotics have no target when dealing with viruses. Antibiotics work on bacteria because it targets the growth machinery in bacteria. Viruses are found inside a human cell and reproduce by inserting their DNA into a human cell. There are antivirals and vaccines out there for viruses. Our body’s immune system fights against viruses with antibodies!
