• Microbiology is the study of organisms that are too small to be seen with the naked eyes, also known as microorganisms.
• The term "bugs" and "germs" are often used by the media to describe microorganisms.
• A "germ" refers to a rapidly growing cell.
• Microbiology is the study of microbes or microorganisms.
• Living things are made out of cells, according to the Cell Theory, which states that all living things are made out of cells, the smallest living thing is the cell, and all cells come from pre-existing cells.
• Scientific names are “Latinized” and used worldwide, may be descriptive or honor a scientist, and are used in all fields of science.
• A few microorganisms are pathogenic, meaning they cause diseases.
• Microorganisms decompose organic waste, are producers in the ecosystem by photosynthesis, and contribute to the nitrogen cycle.
• People study Microbiology to produce industrial chemicals such as ethanol and acetone, produce fermented foods like vinegar, cheese, and bread, and produce products used in manufacturing and treatment.
• The genus is capitalized and the specific epithet is lower case.
• Microorganisms are highly organized, utilize energy, reproduce, evolve, maintain homeostasis, and respond to stimuli.
• Carl Linnaeus established the system of scientific nomenclature, each organism has two names: genus and specific epithet, and these names are italicized or underlined.
