1 Cholinesterase inhibitor toxicity is due to a decrease in the ability of cholinesterase to breakdown acetylcholine which results in excessively high acetylcholine levels. 2  Cholinesterase inhibitors fall into two classes, organophosphorus compounds, and carbamates.ow Acetylcholine is Blocked (Optional Reading). Figure 2 below shows how a cholinesterase inhibitor (in this case, a nerve agent) attaches to the serine hydroxyl group on acetylcholinesterase.
(Âµm micrometers) A single mitochondrion- 0.2-1 Âµm wide x3-10 Âµm long (can differ very much depending on the cell) Chloroplasts - 3 Âµm wide x 5 Âµm long As you can see mitochondria can often be bigger than bacteria cells... and viruses are way smaller then bacteria!Âµm micrometers) A single mitochondrion- 0.2-1 Âµm wide x3-10 Âµm long (can differ very much depending on the cell) Chloroplasts - 3 Âµm wide x 5 Âµm long As you can see mitochondria can often be bigger than bacteria cells... and viruses are way smaller then bacteria!
1 They are 10 to 100 times smaller than bacteria. 2  The biggest difference between viruses and bacteria is that viruses must have a living host-like a plant or animal-to multiply, while most bacteria can grow on non-living surfaces. Bacteria are intercellular organisms (i.e. they live in-between cells); whereas viruses are intracellular organisms (they infiltrate the host cell and live inside the cell). 2  They change the host cell's genetic material from its normal function to producing the virus itself.
