microorganisms
![Page 6: We are Not Alone They are in the air we breathe... In our food... On our skin...](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062312/551c15f85503469e4f8b5622/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
What are microorganisms?
(also called microbes)
![Page 7: We are Not Alone They are in the air we breathe... In our food... On our skin...](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062312/551c15f85503469e4f8b5622/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Microbes are small living plantsplants or animalsanimals most of which are not visible to the naked eye.
Some microbes cause diseasedisease or infectioninfection.
Many microbes are “good” “good” organismsorganisms that help keep balance in the environment and the body.
![Page 8: We are Not Alone They are in the air we breathe... In our food... On our skin...](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062312/551c15f85503469e4f8b5622/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
What microbes lack in size, they make up in
number.
On the average human, there are about 100 trillion microbes.
![Page 9: We are Not Alone They are in the air we breathe... In our food... On our skin...](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062312/551c15f85503469e4f8b5622/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Good vs. Bad Microorganisms:
Microorganisms that cause disease (germs) are referred to as pathogens.
Yeah, I’m bad.
![Page 10: We are Not Alone They are in the air we breathe... In our food... On our skin...](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062312/551c15f85503469e4f8b5622/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Microorganisms that are harmless or beneficial are
called nonpathogens.
![Page 11: We are Not Alone They are in the air we breathe... In our food... On our skin...](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062312/551c15f85503469e4f8b5622/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Most microbes are considered
beneficial or harmless.
87%

The role of good microorganisms
Marine & freshwater microbes form the basis of the food chain
in oceans, lakes, and rivers.
![Page 13: We are Not Alone They are in the air we breathe... In our food... On our skin...](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062312/551c15f85503469e4f8b5622/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Soil microbes help break down
wastes.

Humans and other animals depend on
bacteria in their intestines for digestion and
synthesis of vitamins including:
vitamin B (for metabolism)
vitamin K (for blood clotting)
![Page 15: We are Not Alone They are in the air we breathe... In our food... On our skin...](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062312/551c15f85503469e4f8b5622/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Microorganisms have many commercial applications
They are used in synthesis of chemical products such as:
acetoneenzymes
alcohol
organic acids
many drugs
![Page 16: We are Not Alone They are in the air we breathe... In our food... On our skin...](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062312/551c15f85503469e4f8b5622/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
They are used in the food industry for producing:
vinegarpickles
cheese
green olives
alcoholic beverages
yogurt
bread

Main Classes of Pathogenic Organisms:
1)Bacteria • simple one-celled organisms• At home within “climate” of human
body• compose largest group of pathogens
2)Fungi: yeasts & molds • Plant-like organisms that live on
dead organic matter• Grow best in dark, damp places

3) Viruses - smallest microbes
•acellular particles (not a complete cell)4) Protozoa
•one-celled animals often found in decayed materials & contaminated water5) Helminths
