The Life Process of Bacteria by Varnce

Image result for bacteriaHi! guys, today i will be showing you what is Life Processes of Bacteria and all the other wacky and funky things that come with it! So sit back ,relax and get your reading glasses cos i'm going to show you the "World of Bacteria!"


Did you know that every 20 seconds a new piece of bacteria forms In the world?  To do so it needs food like any other thing to grow, including oxygen , carbon dioxide and water. When these things run out,  the bacteria will start to die out that is why when you see cold, dark and damp places, there is normally a decent amount of bacteria like moss or other types.

Bacteria is also a living organism and is apart of  MRS GREN or the seven life processes. Bacteria displays a wide diversity of shapes and sizes called morphologies.

Did you know that bacteria cells are about one tenth the size of eukaryotic cells and are typically 0.5-5.0 Micrometers in length? However there are a few species you can see with the unaided eye for example, Thiomargarita  namibiensis is up to half a millimeter in length.

 Bacteria cells exist as single cells but some like Streptococcus might form chains or other things like a bunch of grapes LOL Some even for body's that can go for 500 micrometers long and containing about 100,000 cells. In these body each piece of Bacteria has a certain job for example some might migrate to the fruity top to differentiate into a specialised dormant  state called a myxospore.

Bacteria often attaches to surface and forms dense aggregation called biofilms and larger formations are called microbial mats.
