What are Microbes?. - What is the smallest living thing you can think of?. What are Microbes?. What are Microbes?. Microbes are tiny living life forms.. They are so small we can only see them using microscopes.. Kingdoms. Scientists classify living organisms into 6 main groups called Kingdoms. These include:. Animals. Plants. Fungi. Protists. Bacteria. Archaea. Microbes. Germ = microbe that causes disease.. Microbes cause most infectious diseases.. Invisible to the naked eye. . Extremophiles . phile. - lover of. What is an Extremophile?. An extremophile is an organism that thrives under "extreme" conditions. . They are prokaryotes in the kingdom . The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. Algae. Copepod. Amoeba. E. coli.

Besides macroscopic plants and animals, microbes are the major components of biological systems on this earth. Microbes are present everywhere – in soil, water, air, inside our bodies and that of other animals and plants. Microbes like bacteria and many fungi can be grown on nutritive media to form colonies, that can be seen with the naked eyes. Such cultures are useful in studies on micro-organisms. Some of the most important contributions of microbes to human welfare are as follows. . Author: Michael Witty. Citation: Michael Witty. 2009. Spirochetes in the context of their environment and other microbes.. Publication Date : August 2009. Introduction. Most observations of spirochetes come from cultivated microbes or rich animal systems.  This is because of the small size of these bacteria and the technical difficulties associated with resolving them in complex environmental samples.  This movie shows bacteria from a soil sample swimming amongst soil particles and other soil microbes.. The kind and number of airborne microbes vary tremendously in different environments and dependent upon the activity in the environment and upon the amount of dust stirred up. The most significant environmental factors influencing viability of microbes are temperature, relative humidity and wind velocity. Other factors influencing their survival are oxygen, air ions, solar irradiance and open air factors. Among the microbes present in the atmosphere, bacteria are highest in number. In Outdoor air. .
