PPT-ATMOSPHERE: AEROMICROFLORA AND DISPERSAL OF 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 . for a Population under Climate Change.

All students will: . Understand there are three different types of microbe. . Understand that microbes are found everywhere. . Understand that useful bacteria are found in our body. . Key Stage 4. Learning Outcomes. All students will: . • Understand that some microbes can keep us healthy. . • Understand that some microbes can be useful. . • Understand that we need bacterial colonisation to live a healthy life. .
