Almost all viruses are too small to be seen under a compound microscope, although many bacteria also are too small to be seen under a compound microscope. Antibiotics are ineffective against viruses, while there are antibiotics that are effective against most bacteria. The genetic material of viruses may be DNA or RNA, and the genetic material of bacteria is always DNA. Viruses cannot be cultured on artificial media, while most bacteria can be cultured. Facts 2, 3, and 5 provide the most significant information indicating that the disease agent is a virus. PTS: 1 DIF: III OBJ: 20.1.1 | 20.2.2 | 20.3.3 | 20.3.6 114. ANS: Viruses are active inside living cells, making viruses an important part of the study of biology. Viruses contain genetic material and can evolve as this material changes over time. PTS: 1 DIF: III OBJ: 20.2.1 115. ANS: Viruses are segments of nucleic acids contained in a protein coat. Because viruses are not cellular, cannot reproduce on their own, do not grow, do not maintain homeostasis, and do not metabolize, biologists do not consider viruses to be living. PTS: 1 DIF: III OBJ: 20.2.1 116. ANS: person-to-person contact, through the air, in contaminated food or water, and on contaminated objects such as doorknobs and kitchen sponges PTS: 1 DIF: III OBJ: 20.3.2 | 20.3.3 117. ANS: Antibiotics work by killing or inhibiting the growth of microorganisms. Since viruses do not undergo cellular processes, do not grow, and cannot be killed (since they are not alive), they are not influenced by the actions of antibiotics. Thus, antibiotic treatment is ineffective against viral infections. PTS: 1 DIF: III OBJ: 20.3.5
