Answer 1

1.1 1) Various types of microorganisms are :-

- Virus

- Archaea

- Protozoans

- Algae

- Bacteria

- Fungi

1.1 2) Multiple professions using microbiology are :-

- Medicine

- Nursing

- Biochemistry

- Genetics

- Life sciences

- Agriculture

- Biotechnology

1.2 3) Role of microbes on earth :-

1. microorganisms have profound influence on all aspects of the earth and its residents

2. bacterial-like organism in fossil records 3.5 billion years ago (prokaryote organisms w/o true nucleus

3. 2 billion years later, eukaryotes (nucleus)

4. Karyote = seed = all items needed to recreate

Microbes - they seems to be too tiny to see but play a surprisingly large role in life on earth. Humans depend on microbial communities in more ways than you can imagine. For example, microbes: • Make air breathable • Keep us healthy • Provide sources of new drugs • Help us digest food • clean up hazardous chemicals • support and protect crops .

1.2 4) Evolution - Accumulation of changes that occur in organisms as they adapt to their environment.

# Theory of evolution :-

documented each day in all corners of the planet

observable phenomena testable by science

label for a well studied and well established Natural Phenomena
