hmm there seems to be something on this
bread I wonder what it is
aha that's interesting so do you want to
have a look come here take a look
wondering what they are these are
microorganisms so do you want to learn
more about them
zoom in there are some living organisms
that cannot be seen with bare eyes and
can only be visible with a powerful
microscope these organisms are called
microorganisms or microbes there are
five types of living microorganisms
fungi bacteria viruses algae and
protozoa most fungi feed through
microscopic threads called hyphae these
threads dig into a food source and
release chemicals that break down the
food then the fungi digest it and use it
as nutrients fungi feed on dead animals
bird droppings manure fruit date almost
anything that was once alive
bacteria are single-celled spherical
spiral or rod shaped organisms they are
a few micrometers long you'd be
surprised to know that there are more
bacteria in your mouth
than the number of people in this world
bacteria can be found everywhere they
are in the air the soil and water in
plants and animals including you and me
viruses are single-celled microorganisms
they can only survive inside the cells
of other living organisms once they
enter a living organism they multiply
and cause diseases like conjunctivitis
chicken pox measles etc viruses are said
to be so small that 500 million of them
could fit on the head of a pen
Algy organisms that are found all over
the world they are important because
they make much of the Earth's oxygen
there are about 27,000 different species
or types of algae the world protozoa
means little animal this is because the
proto's who are hunt and gather other
microbes as food and hence act like tiny
animals protozoa mainly feed on bacteria
but they also eat other protozoa and
other organic matter trivia time some
areas of the Indian Ocean
light up at night the light is caused by
tiny sea algae dinoflagellate are human
fights of one of the most dangerous
animal bites in the world due to the
bacteria in their mouths shine for me to
order some pizza and fill my tummy after
all the bread slices got eaten by fungi
this is me zooming out tune in next time
for more fun facts
you
