How are bacteria harmful to man?
Bacteria can be harmful to humans by causing infections and diseases such as strep throat, pneumonia, and food poisoning. They can also produce harmful toxins that can result in illness. Additionally, some bacteria can become resistant to antibiotics, making infections more difficult to treat.
What type of food properties allow harmful bacteria to multiply rapidly?
There are various food properties that allow harmful bacteria to multiply rapidly; one being the food is low in acid. Two more are moisture and that the food is high in protein.
What are some ways that mutations in some living things are helpful to those organisms but harmful to humans?
Mutations in bacteria that confer antibiotic resistance help the bacteria survive and thrive in their environment, but can be harmful to humans if these bacteria cause infections that are difficult to treat. Similarly, mutations in insects that confer resistance to pesticides help them survive, but can be harmful to humans as it makes pest control more difficult.
Where do harmful bacteria usually live?
Harmful bacteria can usually be found in environments that are warm, moist, and contain organic matter such as food, water, and soil. Common sources of harmful bacteria include raw meat, contaminated water, and unsanitary surfaces. Additionally, they can thrive in the human body, causing infections when the immune system is compromised.
Do anaerobic bacteria have flagella?
Some methanogenic bacteria (which are anaerobic) do have flagella. You can read more in the related link
What is the purpose of harmful bacteria?
There isn't really a "purpose" for harmful bacteria, or anything else, in the scientific sense (perhaps what you really meant to ask was "Why did God/the gods create harmful bacteria?" but then you should have put it in the Religion category). Some bacteria are "harmful" because that helps them spread and reproduce (bacteria that happened to cause coughing or sneezing spread more effectively, and so passed that trait on to their descendants). Some bacteria are harmful as a defense against other kinds of bacteria; a species that can live in a highly toxic environment has at least some incentive to MAKE the environment highly toxic so that they don't have to compete with other species. And some bacteria are harmful more or less "by accident"; they don't derive any real benefit from being harmful, but there's no advantage to them in NOT being harmful either, so there's no evolutionary pressure on them to become either more or less harmful.
Is bacteria more helpful or harmful?
I'm sure you know that it can be both like the E.coli bacteria that lives in your colon is helpful, but if it grows uncontrollably you can develop a disease so i would say that they are more harmful than helpful
Is bacteria harmful and helpful?
Yes. Your skin has many types of bacteria that are needed to fight off more harmful bacteria. Females have bacteria that help fight off fungal infections. When a bacteria population reaches a certain number it is no longer helpful, and thus considered pathologic
Harmful effects of bacteria?
Bacteria can cause harmful effects in the body by producing toxins that can damage cells, tissues, and organs. They can also trigger inflammatory responses leading to symptoms such as fever, swelling, and pain. Some bacteria can even cause serious infections that may be life-threatening if not treated promptly.
Why is a dog's mouth cleaner than a human's mouth?
A dog's mouth is cleaner because it contains less bacteria although these bacteria are more harmful to humans

Does fresh chicken become harmful if kept on room temperature whole night?
I believe it would become harmful bc illness causing bacteria could grow and multiply in that time.... such as salmonella. and do not refreeze it... i have heard that's even more harmful i feel smart.... im 12 years old and u ppl don't no this stuff
Can you refreeze a cooked ham that has been thawed but not warmed?
Yes you can. Generally when you warm it first bacteria settles into it and then when you thaw it once more to consume it, you will be eating the (sometimes harmful) bacteria.
When can microorganisms be harmful?
Almost every disease is caused by a microbe. Bacteria, viruses, amoeba, yeast plus many more.
How does swabbing the skin before an injection help prevent infection?
Swabbing the site with alcohol is done routinely by doctors. I have been doing the same for years. This practice is more or less of psychological value. The bacteria are not killed in such a short time. Many diabetic patients have been taking insulin injections for years without swabbing the skin with spirit and they have no problem. The healthy skin has got too little number of bacteria to create problem. The tip of the needle is too sharp to put in the enough number of bacteria to create any problem. But this harmless practice will continue in coming years also.
