HELP! 1. Which best compares bacteria and viruses?

A. Bacteria are smaller than viruses.

B. Bacteria cause disease, but viruses do not.

C. Bacteria are living organisms, but viruses are not.

D. Bacteria have genetic material, but viruses do not.

C

Explanation:

This is because viruses are bigger than bacteria, so it is not A. Bacteria and viruses both cause disease so it is not B. And viruses have genetic material, not bacteria so it is not D. Also viruses are considered nonliving because they don't meet all the characteristics of life, so it is C.
