1. Bacteria have a single, circular chromosome. White blood cells have many, (more-or-less) linear chromosomes. (Exact number depends on species.)
2. The bacterial chromosome is loose within the cell. In white blood cells (and other eukaryotic cells), the chromosomes are contained within the neucleus.
3. Bacteria do not (generally) contain organelles. (Although some may contain gas vesicles or simple nutrient storage structures.)
4. Bacterial ribosomes are smaller than eukaryotic ribosomes. (70S vs. 80S)
5. Bacteria have a cell wall, white blood cells do not.
6. Depending on the type of bacteria they may or may not photosynthesize (eg. cyanobacteria). White blood cells never photosynthesize.
7. Some bacteria may have cilia and/or flagella.
8. A bacterium is a complete organism all on its own. A white blood cell is part of a much larger organism.
9. Bacteria reproduce via "binary fission" or "budding", white blood cells replicate via mitosis.
Bacteria are single-celled microorganisms that can be harmful or helpful, while white blood cells are a type of cell in the immune system that help fight off infections and foreign invaders. Bacteria can cause infections and diseases in the body, while white blood cells work to recognize and destroy harmful pathogens to keep the body healthy.
One key genetic difference is the presence of a nucleus in human cells, which bacteria lack. Human cells have linear chromosomes enclosed within the nucleus, while bacteria have a single circular chromosome located in the cytoplasm. Additionally, bacteria may have plasmids, small circular DNA molecules that are often absent in human cells.
The immune system fights bacteria that enters the body. It does this by using various defense mechanisms such as white blood cells, antibodies, and complement proteins to identify and destroy the invading bacteria.
Phagocytosis by white blood cells, such as macrophages and neutrophils, is an example of the immune system's innate defense mechanism against disease-causing bacteria. These cells recognize and engulf the bacteria to prevent infection and promote immunity.
Bacteria can invade red blood cells by producing enzymes that break down the cell membrane, allowing the bacteria to enter and nourish themselves on the contents of the cell. Once inside, the bacteria can replicate and cause the destruction of the red blood cell.
Yes, white blood cells are responsible for engulfing and digesting bacteria that enter the body. This process is known as phagocytosis, where the white blood cells detect, engulf, and destroy invading bacteria to help protect the body from infection.
Viruses stay inside the cells. They can not be attacked by the white blood cells. Bacteria are usually stay outside the cells. They are readily attacked by the white blood cells. There is fight between white blood cells and bacteria. Pus contains the dead bacteria and dead white blood cells. That is why the pus formation occurs in bacterial infection only. This is the probable answer to above question.
Bacteria can attack and kill cells. White blood cells can kill bacteria.
White blood cells fight infection while the red blood cells carry blood to your heart.
White blood cells are cells in the immune system that help fight off infections caused by viruses, bacteria, and other pathogens. They are not viruses or bacteria themselves.
White blood cells can engulf and digest bacteria through a process called phagocytosis. Once inside the white blood cells, specialized enzymes break down the bacteria to eliminate the infection.
The part of blood that protects us from harmful bacteria are white blood cells.
bacteria, white blood cells, and damaged cells
White blood cells are the backbone of the bodies immunity. White blood cells attach to bad cells or bacteria to help fight of disease.
One key genetic difference is the presence of a nucleus in human cells, which bacteria lack. Human cells have linear chromosomes enclosed within the nucleus, while bacteria have a single circular chromosome located in the cytoplasm. Additionally, bacteria may have plasmids, small circular DNA molecules that are often absent in human cells.
man this stuff is hard, but try it first if it don't make any sense then leave it.
Bacteria cells are prokaryotic, meaning they lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, while plant cells are eukaryotic and contain both a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. Plant cells have a cell wall made of cellulose, chloroplasts for photosynthesis, and a large central vacuole, which are not present in bacteria cells. Additionally, plant cells can perform photosynthesis, while bacteria cells cannot.
