difference between bacteria‚ viruses‚ fungi and parasites are: Bacteria are single celled organisms that can rapidly multiple themselves every 10 minutes up to 10 times each bacterial cell‚ but they do not live or reproduce in a human cell. When threatened they will make a copy of their DNA to enable them to come back to life in the right conditions.

Some groups however grow to larger sizes and have spectacular shapes (1). Bacteria are present in most habitats on the planet‚ growing in soil‚ water‚ acidic hot springs‚ radioactive waste‚ and deep in the Earth’s crust‚ as well as in organic matter and the live bodies of plants and animals (2).
