Microbes acquire nutrients from their environment through the process of nutrition. There are two kinds of essential nutrients for microbes: macronutrients and micronutrients. Microbes obtain these nutrients through absorption and use them for energy production and growth. Factors like nutrients, temperature, pH, water availability, gases, light, and other organisms have the greatest impact on microbial growth.
