All existing bacteria are prokaryotic microorganisms characterized by their single-celled structure, lack of a nucleus, and simple organization. They possess a cell wall, primarily composed of peptidoglycan, and reproduce asexually through binary fission. Bacteria exhibit tremendous diversity in shape, metabolism, and habitat, allowing them to thrive in various environments, from extreme conditions to the human body. They play crucial roles in ecosystems, including nutrient cycling, decomposition, and as part of the human microbiome.
