Bacteria
are prokaryotes and are among the most abundant organisms on earth. Although most of them
are harmless and beneficial, yet many can also cause diseases.
Viruses
are not organisms but are particles of nucleic acids enveloped by a protein shell. They need a
living host (i.e., animals, plants, bacteria) to enable them to live and reproduce.
Fungi
can also cause diseases among humans. These are saprophytic and parasitic organisms that lack
chlorophyll and include molds, rusts, mildews, smuts, mushrooms and yeasts.
Sore Eyes
The surface of the eyeball under sides of the eyelid
becomes inflamed from exposure to dust and germs.
