Microbes (Microorganisms) are classified in the following types.

The first group consists of the Prokaryotes:

* Bacteria * Arachaea

The second group is made up of the Eukaryotes:

* Protists * Microscopic Animals * Fungi * Microscopic Plants

Prokaryotes are organisms that lack a cell nucleus and other "organelles", which are specialized parts of the cell that carry out specific functions and usually are separated from the rest of the cell by a membrane. This group includes bacteria and arachaea. Arachaea used to be considered just a different type of bacteria, but based on their RNA, scientists now know they developed separately. Study of them as a separate group is just beginning and there is still much to know about the differences and similarities between them and bacteria.

Eukaryotes differ from Prokaryotes in that they dohave cell nuclei separated within the membrane structures of the complex cells. There are also other specialized and membrane-bound structures in Eukaryotes which are the "organelles". Examples of organelles are: Mitochondria, Chloroplasts, and Gogi bodies. Eukaryotes also differ from Prokaryotes in how their cell division works. Most living organisms, including animals and humans, are Eukaryotes.

The Eukaryotes that are microbes are the:

Protists: Protozoa (one-celled animal like organisms), Protophyta (plant-like organisms that are made up mostly of one-celled algae), and fungus-like protistssuch as slime molds and water molds.

Microscopic Animals: Microscopic arthropods (dust mites, spider mites), microscopic crustaceans (copepods, cladocera, microscopic nematodes), rotifers (fresh water filter feeders), plankton, planarian, and amoeba.

Microscopic Fungi: Baker's yeast, Fission yeast, and microscopic pathogenic yeasts (such as Candida albicans).

Microscopic Plants: One of the largest groups of microscopic plants are the Green Algae. There are around 6000 species of Green Algae and most, but not all, are microbes.

Viruses are not considered microbes by scientists in this area of microbiology since they are not alive, they are inanimate particles that function similarly but are not technically microbes or living organisms. And, they are smaller than microbes, since they are sub-microscopic, requiring electron microscopes to visualize.

There are three types of microbes;aerobic,obligate anaerobic microbes and facultative anaerobic microbes.Aerobic microbes are the ones that need oxygen for their survival,facultative anaerobic microbes can do with or without oxygen while obligate anaerobic microbes do not need oxygen for their survival

Microbes are microscopic organisms that are categorized into six major types. These are the archaea, bacteria, fungi, Protista, viruses and microbial mergers.
