Antibiotics are drugs designed to treat bacterial infections by killing bacteria or preventing their growth. They do not work against viruses.
Yeast, specifically Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is a fungus used in fermentation processes. It converts sugars into carbon dioxide (for bread rising) and ethanol (for alcoholic beverages).
CRISPR-Cas9 is a revolutionary gene-editing technology that enables scientists to modify specific DNA sequences with high precision, widely used in genetic research and biotechnology.
Vaccines introduce harmless parts of a pathogen (or weakened/killed forms) to the body, prompting the immune system to build defenses without causing the disease itself.
Bacteria are single-celled organisms that can reproduce on their own, while viruses are non-living particles that need a host cell to replicate.
