    Certain bacteria in food can make people sick if consumed. While some bacteria are harmful, not all bacteria are bad for humans. If all autotrophic bacteria died off, life on Earth would change drastically as they play a key role in nutrient cycles. Bacteria help decompose organic matter and release nutrients back into the soil, which in turn helps plants grow.
