Microorganisms refer to a very large group of living organisms that are too small to be seen with the un-aided human eye. These include, but are not limited to, bacteria, fungi, algae, viruses, and protozoans. Microorganisms are found all over the planet and in all environments. For example, there are microorganisms inside our bodies, in the dirt in the backyard, in the pond, in your pool or hot tub, in volcanic areas, etc.
