There are quite a few good effects of microorganisms. They can digest food in us and other animals Have you ever thought about what happens to the leaves that fall down in Autumn? Well what happens is thousands of microorganisms go round and eat all the leaves. They do the same with dead animals. Have you ever thrown your apple core or orange peel, or any type of fruit, on the floor? Well you have probably heard that it is OK to do this because again, microorganisms eat them. The reason why you shouldn't throw PLASTIC away is because microbes can't eat that! So yes, There ARE some BAD microorganisms in the world, but there are also some VERY GOOD ones! And without them, we couldn't live!!!
