Bacteria usually reproduce asexually. In case of sexual reproduction, certain plasmids genetic material can be passed between bacteria. On the other hand, viruses mainly carry information-for example, DNA or RNA, packaged in a protein and/or membranous coat.Viruses harness the host cell's machinery to reproduce.acteria usually reproduce asexually.

The vegetative form of B. cereus grows in a range of 10 to 50Â°C, with a temperature optimum between 30 and 40Â°C. However, the individual cold-tolerating strains can also multiply at temperatures of 4 to 6Â°C; in these cases the generation times are, however, considerably longer.
The temperature during incubation, specifically at a certain critical stage of incubation and embryonic development, determines gender. The ideal range of temperature for incubation of Eastern box turtle eggs is about 72F at the low end, and 93F at the high end.
