The correct placement of hyphens in "microorganism" typically does not require any hyphens, as it is a single, compound word.

In general usage, though, "microorganism" is written as one word without hyphens.
Do you use hyphens in word fractions?
Yes, hyphens are used in word fractions when they are written out in text. For example, you would write "one-third" or "two-fifths" with a hyphen. However, when using fractions in numerical form, like 1/3 or 2/5, hyphens are not necessary.
Do compound words have hyphens?
While it's true that some compound words have hyphens, all compound words do not. For example, the words horsefly, chestnut, and birdhouse are compound words, yet they don't have hyphens. On the other hand, a few words have hyphens, but are still compound words.A common rule in determining whether a compound word should be one word or two is how the word is used in context. Phrases that have a verb/noun or verb/adjective combination should be two words if the combined term is a verb and one word if the compound word is a noun or description. For instance, "my car will never break down" uses "break" as a verb, whereas "Michael had a breakdown" uses "break" as part of a noun. This is useful in determining the difference between one and two word compound phrases, but does not really help us with whether to hyphenate compound words or not.One usually consistently hyphenated form of compound words are those with a connecting middle word. Terms such as merry-go-round or mother-in-law are almost always written with a hyphen. One exception is commander in chief, which is frequently seen without the hyphen, especially when referring to the President of the United States as an alternate title.
When your writing an essay that supposed to be a certain number of words if use one word more than once does it count as one word?
Yes, it does, but you may be getting way too literal in your word count interpretation. Unless you have been told to be microscopically accurate, you count the number of words in a line and multiply by the number of lines. Usually the tiny words don't count (the, to, in, etc). There may be other methods of estimating word count; check with the teacher.
