can have it more than once. The differences between a virus and a bacterium are thus: * Bacteria are unicellular‚ Viruses have no cells. * Bacteria have DNA and RNA floating in cytoplasm‚ and a cell wall and membrane. Viruses have DNA or RNA enclosed in a protein coat. * Bacteria have Ribosomes‚ whereas viruses do not. * Bacterial infections are localised‚ yet viruses are systemic. As you can see‚ there are a load of differences between viruses and bacteria‚ however there

Dengue virus is an epidemic facing many Asian countries. Although the current topic of discussion among health professionals is a possible outbreak of avian flu among humans‚ the dengue virus kills hundreds every year in the same region (ONE). This epidemic is not one that faces easy fixes‚ in fact there is no vaccine for the dengue virus.

Behaviorism considers factors such as reinforcement history and maturation levels in affecting the ability it learn‚ and emphasizes maintaining learned behavior through repeated reviews of expectations and schedules of reinforcement.
