MICROORGANISM

 A microorganism, or microbe, is a
microscopic organism, which may exist
in its single-celled form or in a colony of
cells.
BACTERIA
 Bacteria are microscopic,
single-celled organisms.
They are among the
earliest known life forms on
earth.Only a few kinds of
bacteria cause disease.
They are called pathogens.
Sometimes bacteria that
normally reside harmlessly
in the body cause disease.
ALGAE
 Algae are relatively
undifferentiated
organisms which,
unlike plants, have no
true roots, leaves,
flowers or seeds.
They are found in
marine, freshwater
and terrestrial
habitats.
PROTOZOA
 Protozoa (also
protozoan, plural
protozoans) is an
informal term for single-
celled eukaryotes, either
free-living or parasitic,
which feed on organic
matter such as other
microorganisms or
organic tissues and
debris.
FUNGI
 "Fungal" aspects. Fungi
constitute one of the life
kingdoms. Fungi are
eukaryotic organisms
with a cell wall like
plants, but they do not
have chlorophyll.Instead,
fungi feed by absorption
of nutrients from the
surrounding
environment.
ARCHAEA
 Archaea constitute a domain
of single-celled
microorganisms. These
microbes (archaea; singular
archaeon) are prokaryotes,
meaning they have no cell
nucleus. Archaea were
initially classified as bacteria,
receiving the name
archaebacteria (in the
Archaebacteria kingdom), but
this classification is outdated.
VIRUSES
 Once it infects a
susceptible cell,
however, a virus can
direct the cell
machinery to produce
more viruses.The
entire infectious virus
particle, called a
virion, consists of the
nucleic acid and an
outer shell of protein.
PARASITISM
 Parasitism is a kind of
symbiosis, a close and
persistent long-term
biological interaction
between the parasite and its
host. Unlike commensalism
and mutualism, the
parasitic relationship harms
the host, either feeding on it
or, as in the case of
intestinal parasites,
consuming some of its food.
