Which feature is present in bacteria but absent from viruses?

  • A.A capacity to cause disease
  • B.Ribosomes
  • C.Nucleic acid
  • D.Proteins

Answer: B

Bacteria are cells and carry ribosomes, so they synthesise their own proteins and generate their own energy. A virus has nucleic acid and protein but no ribosomes, which is precisely why it must borrow a cell's machinery to replicate.
