Im writing an unknown project for microbiology and I have to briefly introduce the subject of microbiology.
Solution: Microbiology is the study of organisms that cannot be seen through naked eyes. The filed includes the study of bacteria, viruses, fungi, algae and protozoans. We can classify these microorganisms differently. Primary classification is into eukaryotes and prokaryotes. Eukaryotic microorganisms like fungi, algae and protozoan have membrane bound organelles whereas prokaryotic microbes lack membrane bound organells. The bacteria and Archae are classified under prokaryotes. The viruses have been treated differently because theri real entity whether they are truly living or non-living is yet a debate topic. Anyways they also tend to exhibit the properties of living organisms like replication of their genome, transcription of genome into mRNAs and translation of mRNAs into proteins.
The existence of microbes was predicted many centuries before their discovery. Even after the discovery many belived that they have abiogenitic origin rather than biogenetic origin. Many theories got dissaproved many other theories get stabilized and the scientific community have been validating them with new tools and technique.
