Science in The Vernacular Studies
| 1. HEY! HERE WE CHAT ABOUT CELLS AND THE THINGS THAT HAPPEN INSIDE THE CELL |
| 2. BECAUSE VIRUSES AND BACTERIA ARE THE ONES THAT MAKE CELLS SICK, THAT’S WHY WE’RE TALKING ABOUT’EM |
| 3. BUT I WANTED TO MAKE THIS VIDEO TO CLARIFY SOME BIG DISTINCTIONS BETWEEN BACTERIA AND VIRUSES |
| 4.TODAY, WE’LL TALK ABOUT FOUR MAIN DIFFERENCES. THERE MIGHT BE MORE, BUT WE’LL HIGHLIGHT THESE ONES TODAY |
| 5.THE FIRST THING |
| 6. BACTERIA ARE USUALLY BIGGER THAN VIRUSES |
| 7. A SECOND THING |
| 8. VIRUSES AREN’T ABLE TO DIVIDE WITHOUT BEING INSIDE THEIR HOST, BE IT AN ANIMAL, PLANT |
| 9. THE THIRD THING |
| 10. BACTERIA ARE MADE OF CELLS. BUT IT’S JUST ONE CELL. VIRUSES ARE BASICALLY A BAG OF NUCLEIC ACID INSTRUCTIONS |
| 11. THE FOURTH THING |
| 12. YOU CAN’T KILL A VIRUS WITH ANTIBIOTICS |
| 13. ANTIBIOTICS ARE JUST FOR BACTERIA |
| 14. SO. THESE TWO MICROORGANISMS ARE DIFFERENT |
| 15. EVEN THOUGH THEY’RE TINY AND SOME OF THEM MAKE US SICK, THERE IS A BIG DISTINCTION |
| 16. A FUN FACT, THERE ARE SOME OTHER EVEN SMALLER ORGANISMS THAT MAKE BACTERIA SICK |
| 17. THESE ARE CALLED BACTERIOPHAGES |
| 18. THIS IS WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE! |
| 19. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE DIFFERENCES OF THESE TINY ORGANISMS? |
| 20. LET ME KNOW IN THE COMMENTS! |
