Question

Microbes are of 4 types :Protozoa , Algae , Fungi and Bacteria . Why is virus not included here ??

Answer 1

Dear student viruses are not included in the category of microorganisms because virus is too small as they can't be seen with a light microscope.we have to use an electrical microscope to see them.viruses are not alive when they are outside of the body of any other living organisms, when they enters the body of any living organisms, they uses the energyof its host to survive.virus cannot reproduce by itself. Once it infects a susceptible cell, however, a virus can direct the cell machinery to produce more viruses Regards.
