A Microbe versus Animal Cell
The large spheres are tick cells. The purple bars and dots are the bacterium Rickettsia rickettsii, which is the causative agent of Rocky Mountain spotted fever. Rickettsia rickettsii is a small bacterium that grows inside the cells of its hosts. These bacteria range in size from 0.2 x 0.5 micrometers to 0.3 x 2.0 micrometers.

Microbes are very small organisms that cannot be seen with the naked eye. They typically range in size from 0.1 to 10 micrometers (µm), with some being even smaller. While they are tiny, microbes play crucial roles in various ecosystems and have a significant impact on the environment and human health.

∙ 9y agoMicrobes are extremely small and cannot be seen by the naked eye. They cannot even be measured in millimeters, so they have to be measured in micrometers which is a thousand times smaller than a millimeter. Microbes are usually around 5 micrometers.
ten microbes can fit in a millimetre! ebola virus is a microbe which is in different sizes.
three types of microbe are bacteria, virus and fungus

What can microbes do?
Microbes can play important roles in various ecosystems by recycling nutrients, breaking down organic matter, and supporting plant growth. Some microbes can also cause diseases in humans, animals, and plants. Moreover, microbes are used in various biotechnological applications, such as producing antibiotics, enzymes, and fermented foods.
What are the different classes of microbes?
Microbes can be classified into six main groups: bacteria, viruses, fungi, protozoa, algae, and archaea. Each group has distinct characteristics and includes various species that play important roles in ecosystems and human health.
What is symbiotic microbes?
Symbiotic microbes are microorganisms that live in close association with a host organism, where both parties benefit from the relationship. The host provides the microbes with a suitable environment, and in return, the microbes help the host with various functions like digestion, nutrient absorption, or protection against pathogens. Examples of symbiotic microbes include the bacteria in our gut that aid in digestion.
Are most microbes harmless?
no
What are microbes and what do they do?
Microbes are tiny organisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa. They play crucial roles in various ecosystems by decomposing organic matter, producing oxygen, and assisting in nutrient cycling. In addition, some microbes can cause diseases in plants, animals, and humans.
Is it true that were not alone in the solar system?
Think about it, the solar system isn't that big. But I think there are microbes and bacteriums on one of the planets.
Where can't microbes live?
microbes can live anywhere!
What kills microbes?
sometimes Bactria can kill microbes
What microbes are found in kimchi?
Fermentation process microbes.
Who discovered microbes?
Alexander flaming discovered microbes
Where do microbes live best?
Microbes live best in grass because of cellulose in the grass. But microbes can live anywhere.
Should you swim with big scabs?
No, it is not a good idea. The water softens the scabs, and if there are any unhealthy microbes in the water, they have an entry way into your body.
What is the definition of microbes?
microbes mean small microscopic organisms. Example: I have never seen microbes kill each other!
Do all the microbes have cells?
Virus do not have cells.Other microbes have cells.
When was Microbes - song - created?
Microbes - song - was created in 1968.
What are aerobic microbes?
Microbes that require oxygen for their metabolic processes.
Are all the microbes strictly pathogen?
No, not all microbes are pathogens. Microbes can be beneficial or harmful, depending on the context. Many microbes are essential for processes such as digestion, nutrient cycling, and immune system function.
