so today we are talking about difference between microorganisms like protozoa and viruses , these bad boys are very popular nowadays because they are creating hell in hood so let’s jump to the basic introduction of these boys so we can know what are they in their real role.
Protozoa
The word “protozoa” is the plural word “protozoan”.protozoa are eukaryotic , unicellular , and cell wall less organisms. They always found to be microscopic in size. They play conspicuous role in ecosystem by acting as primary consumers as well as decomposers. They are not found to produce any commercial valuable products. They are known to cause the most deadly disease like malaria . protozoology is the science which includes study related to protozoa
Viruses
The word “viruses” is plural of the word “virus”. Viruses are akaryotic acellular, submicroscopic in size, lacking nucleus, enzymatic machinery, organelle. They are made up of only protein and nucleic acids. They found to be dead without their hosts . as they are obligatory parasites thus they are only viable when their host is present. They don’t show any economic benefits to mankind. But they cause many threaten diseases in human, plants and animals. There are yet smaller and simpler sub viral particles also exist in nature they are known as viroids and prions viroids are made up of only nucleic acid mostly it is single stranded RNA and prions are made up of only proteins . even life can exist without genetic material !!!!!! virology is the science which deals with study related to viruses
