ARCHEA BACTERIA

 Are prokaryotes, which consists of a

CHARACTERISTICS:
 Obligate anaerobes
 Extremophiles
 One-tenth of a micrometer to more
than 15 micrometers(size)
 Cells consists of a think cytoplasm
 Lipids in their cell membranes
 Cell may contain plasmids
single cell with a simple internal
structure.
 Microscopc single- celled organisms
that thrive in diverse envinronments.
 Can live within soil, in the ocean and
inside the human gut.
SPIRILLA

METHANOGENS
 Are anaerobic
unicellular
organisms, that
release
methane as a
waste product
of cellular metabolism.  Spiral- shaped bacteria of the
 They are found mostly in anaerobic family Spirillaceae
freshwater environment, such as lake
sediments and the digestive tracts of BACILLI
animals.

HALOPHILES
 are all micro
organisms
 most of them
are bacteria,  has two orders
while some are -bacillales and Lactobacillales
very primitive  Have rod shape
eukaryotes
 eukaryotes are more complex COCCI
organisms with a nucleus and
membrane – bound organelles
 Halophiles are found in salty places,
such as the Great Salt Lake in Utah and
the Dead sea

THERMOPHILE
 A coccus (plural cocci) is any
bacteria or archaeon that ha a
spherical , ovoid, or generally
round shape. It is one of the three
distinct bacterial shapes, the other
two being bacillus( rod s- shaped)
 Is an organism- a type of extremophile and spiral – shaped cells.
– that thrives at relatively high
temperatures, between 41 and 122 oC )
106 and 252 oF).
 Many thermophiles are archaea.
 Thermphiliceubacteria are suggested to
have been among the earliest bacteri
HARMFUL BACTERIA
CAMPYLOBACTER
 can be found in the gut and faeces
(poo) of animals and is commonly
found in or on raw poultry.
 You become infected with
Campylobacter by taking in the
bacteria through our mouth
 This can be by: eating contaminated,
undercooked meat, especially chicken,
drinking contaminated water or
unpasteurized milk.
PARASITE
 A parasite is an organism that lives on
or in a host organism and gets its food
from or at the expense of its host.
 There are three main classes of
parasites that can cause diseade in
human protozoa, helminthes, and
ectoparasites.
ALLERGEN
 An allergen is a usually harmless
substance capable of triggering a
response that starts in the immune
system and results in an allergic
reaction.
 For instance, if you have an allergy to
pollen, your immune system identities
pollen as an invader or allergen.
USEFUL BACTERIA
STREPTOMYCES
 Is the largest genus of Actinobacteria
and the type genus of the family
Streptomycettaceae.
 Over 500 species of Streptomyces
bacteria have been described.
 As with the other Actinobacteria
stretomycetes are gram- positive, and
have genomes with high GC content,
RHIZOBIA
 Are diazotrophic bacteria that fix
nitrogen after becoming established
inside the root nodules of legumes
(Fabaceae)
 To express genes for nitrogen fixation,
rhizobia require a plant host: they
cannot independently fix nitrogen.
 In general, they are gram negative, mob
ile, non- sporulating rods.
ESCHERICHIA COLI
 Are diazotrophic bacteria that fix
nitrogen after becoming established
inside the root nodules of legumes
(Fabaceae)
 To express genes for nitrogen fixation,
rhizobia require a plant host: they
cannot independently fix nitrogen.
In general, they are gram negative, mob ile,
non- sporulating rods
KINGDOM PROTISTA KINGDOM ANIMALIA

 Protists are eukarytic organisms that

cannot be classified as a plant, animal,
or fungus.
 They are mostly unicellular, but some,
like algae, are multicellular. Kelp, or
seaweed, is a large multicellular protest
that provides food shelter and oxygen
for numerous underwater ecosystem.

PHOTOTROPHS

 are the organisms that carry out photon

capture to acquire energy.
 They use the energy from light to carry
out various cellular metabolic
processes.
 It is a common misconception that
phototrops are obligatory
photosynthetic.

PLASMODIUM

 Is a genus of unicellular eukaryotes

that are obligate parasites of
vertebrates and insects.
 The life cycles of Plamodium species
involve development in a blood –
feeding insect host during a blood
meal.
