Answer:

Viruses are neither prokaryotes nor eukaryotes because they lack all of the characteristics of living things except for the ability to reproduce. They are considered parasitic because they cannot live or replicate without a living host. Viruses consist of genetic material (either DNA or RNA), a protein coat, and sometimes a lipid envelope surrounding the protein coat. They have no function except to reproduce.

Helen [10]

Answer:

soil; rice

Explanation:

Bacillus cereus is naturally found in the soil. B. cereus is known to contaminate rice, which, if undercooked and ingested, can lead to gastroenteritis. In this example, the reservoir for B. cereus is the soil, and the source of infection is the rice.

A reservoir refers to the breeding ground or natural habitat of micro living organisms such as bacterias, fungi, worms, etc. Thus, a reservoir hosts or harbours pathogens and usually serves as a source of infection to other living organisms.

On the other hand, a source of infection refers to a contaminated material from which a disease can be acquired by another living organism.
