only one cell. Bacteria multiply by splitting themselves in two‚ which is called a binary fission. Because of this they can increase in number rapidly. The majority are harmless‚ but some can be pathogenic which results in bacterial infection occuring. Bacterial infections can be treated by using antibiotics. Bacteria can evolve a resistance to antibiotic e.g. MRSA. Some diseases caused by bacteria include tuberculosis‚ pneumonia‚ salmonella‚ tetanus and syphilis. Viruses - are extremely small
