Microorganisms can be prokaryotic—the bacteria or eukaryotic—the algae‚ protozoa or fungi. While viruses are acellular they are also studied in the scope of microbiology because they are small and because they infect cells. While most bacterial are unicellular they can also exist in colonial or multicellular forms. In this laboratory exercise you will examine the ubiquity and diversity of various microbes that are present in the environment or inhabit the human body. Most bacteria that inhabit the body are

Having the ability to collect and identify unknown microorganisms is vital in health and medicine. This capability is important for a variety of reasons‚ such as knowing the causative agent of disease‚ knowing if the microorganism obtains any beneficial properties and knowing the correct microorganism to use to create a successful antibiotic. Implementing the experimental methods learned thus far in the microbiology laboratory allowed an unknown bacterium to be identified as a result of this study

Bacteria and Archaea The Archaea are presently recognized as one of the two main domains of prokaryotes. The majority of genes that indicate Archaea to be different from Bacteria are for information transfer processes such as DNA replication‚ transcription and translation. Of these‚ DNA replication machinery appears to be most different between the two domains. In terms of transcription‚ the core subunits of the RNA polymerase are the same in Bacteria and Archaea‚ but archaea also contains several
