Who Bacteria or viruses invisible to the naked eye?

Bacteria are visible. The plaque on your teeth, or such foods as cheese is mostly bacteria, and you can see it. Though, these are millions of bacteria in a clump, and you can only see the clump, not the individual bacterium. So, if you are looking at one bacterum, only the largest bacterium can be seen with the naked human eye, since they are single-celled organisms. However, for most bacterium, you need visual enhancers, such as a microscope, to see a single specimine, because most types of bacteria are too small for the naked human eye.
