| What is the difference between viruses and bacteria? | 1. Viruses are smaller than bacteria. 2. There is not cure for viruses. 3. Viruses can't survive without another cell. |
| How are viruses and bacteria similar? | Both spread from one person to the next by coughs, sneezes, eye and nose contact which is droplet transmission. |
| What is droplet transmission? | a way that an infectious disease can be transmitted from one person to the next. For example, coughs, sneezing, or eye/nose contact. |
| What is a case study? | an observation of a person or group to use as a model. |

| What part of the microscope can only be used on Low Power? | Coarse Adjustment Knob. |
| What part of the microscope can be used on Low, Medium and High Power? | Fine Adjustment Knob. |
| What is Polio? | No Cure: Almost eradicated from planet, due to immunizations Caused by; poliomyelitis Spread by: feces, hand to mouth |

| What are the symptoms of Mono? | headaches, sore throat, fever, white patches on back of your throat, felling tired and sore muscles. |
| How does a virus spread? | Virus first attaches to the cell membrane. Second, the virus injects its genetic material into the host's cell. Lastly, that newly infected cell divides and divides to make more cells with virus genetic material. |
