The four major types of germs are bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa. They can invade plants, animals, and people, and sometimes they can make us sick. Bacteria (say: BAK-teer-ee-uh) are tiny, one-celled creatures that get nutrients from their environments in order to live.
Viruses are very small particles that can infect animals and plants and make them sick. Viruses are made up of genetic materials like DNA and are protected by a coating of protein. Viruses hijack the cells of living organisms. They inject their genetic material right into the cell and take over.
Germs May Be Good For You. A new study suggests that exposure to common germs during childhood may help fortify the immune system. Exposing kids to nasty germs might actually toughen them up to diseases as grown-ups, mounting research
When this happens, it is said to be contaminated or polluted. Food and water can be contaminated by disease-causing germs. Germs can get into the body through the mouth, nose, breaks in the skin, eyes and genitals (privates). Once disease-causing germs are inside the body they can stop it from working properly.
Germs are bacteria, viruses, and other microbes that cause infections. Some pathogens die almost instantly outside the body, while others may persist for hours, days, or even centuries. ... Temperature, humidity, and the type of surface are the most important factors that affect how long germs survive.
They found the average sneeze or cough can send around 100,000 contagious germs into the air at speeds up to 100 miles per hour.
Virus "Life" Cycles
These are: 1) attachment; 2) penetration; 3) uncoating; 4) replication; 5) assembly; 6)release. As shown in , the virus must first attach itself to the host cell. This is usually accomplished through special glycoprotiens on the exterior of the capsid, envelope or tail.
