Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Viruses are tinier: the largest of them are smaller than the smallest bacteria. All they have is a protein coat and a core of genetic material, either RNA or DNA. Unlike bacteria, viruses can’t survive without a host. They can only reproduce by attaching themselves to cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Similarities Between Bacteria and Viruses Both viruses and bacteria can cause diseases. Both can be spread through coughing, sneezing, or coming into contact with contaminated surfaces, animals, items, or people. Both can possibly be treated with vaccines.

Detailed explanation-3: -A virus is not a living organism and can only grow and reproduce in the cells of a host. Bacteria, by contrast, are single-celled organisms that produce their own energy and can reproduce on their own. While both can cause disease, bacteria also serve other vital and healthful roles in nature.
