The difference between bacteria‚ viruses‚ fungi and parasites are: Bacteria are single celled organisms that can rapidly multiple themselves every 10 minutes up to 10 times each bacterial cell‚ but they do not live or reproduce in a human cell. When threatened they will make a copy of their DNA to enable them to come back to life in the right conditions. They are able to survive in most extreme living conditions including with and without oxygen‚ there are various types of bacteria such as Cocci/Coccus

Microbiology is involved in many aspects of human daily life. The food eaten to the showerheads in the bathroom contain thousands of microbes. Microbiology is evident in our lives and it is reported through various media. News reports have articles about microbes just like a recent article from Times Magazine titled Overcoming Obesity by Alex Park. Park featured article is about the problem of obesity in America and how different scientists are thinking of new manners to combat this epidemic

Introduction: Being able to identify a particular bacterial species is important. It is very useful in knowing its risk of toxicity to humans or animals‚ its resistance or susceptibility to antibiotics‚ and determining how to control its growth or kill it altogether. The purpose of these procedures is to discovery the identity of an unknown microbe by observing its reactions to a barrage of chemical and physical tests. Different microorganisms react in different ways‚ due to their function‚ digestibility

INFECTION An infection is the colonization of a hostorganism by parasitespecies. Infecting parasites seek to use the host’s resources to reproduce‚ often resulting in disease. Colloquially‚ infections are usually considered to be caused by microscopic organisms or microparasites like viruses‚ prions‚ bacteria‚ and viroids‚ though larger organisms like macroparasites and fungi can also infect. Hosts normally fight infections themselves via their immune system. Mammalian hosts react to infections
