  • Yeast vs. Bacteria vs. Viruses: A Size Comparison
    Here's the breakdown of size from smallest to largest:

    * Viruses: Viruses are the smallest of the three. They are so small that they can only be seen with an electron microscope.

    * Bacteria: Bacteria are larger than viruses but still microscopic. They are typically measured in micrometers (µm).

    * Yeast: Yeast is a type of fungus and is significantly larger than bacteria. They are visible under a light microscope.

    In summary: Viruses are the smallest, followed by bacteria, and then yeast.
