Why is cellulose good for microbes?
Cellulose is good for microbes because it is a complex carbohydrate that serves as a source of energy and carbon for many microorganisms. Microbes that can break down cellulose, such as cellulolytic bacteria and fungi, play a crucial role in recycling organic matter and nutrient cycling in ecosystems. The ability to degrade cellulose allows these microbes to thrive in environments rich in plant material.
Names of microbes?
Some examples of microbes include bacteria (e.g., Escherichia coli), archaea (e.g., Methanobrevibacter smithii), fungi (e.g., Candida albicans), viruses (e.g., Influenza virus), and protozoa (e.g., Plasmodium falciparum).
The good and the bad things abot microbes?
Microbes play a crucial role in maintaining our ecosystems and are essential for food production and waste decomposition. However, some microbes can cause disease and infections in humans, plants, and animals. Proper hygiene and sanitation, along with understanding how to harness beneficial microbes, can help us better utilize the good aspects while minimizing the negative impacts of microbes.
What are microbes and what do they do?
Microbes are tiny organisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa. They play crucial roles in various ecosystems by decomposing organic matter, producing oxygen, and assisting in nutrient cycling. In addition, some microbes can cause diseases in plants, animals, and humans.
What are the names of some good microbes?
Good microbes can include probiotics which are used to replace the microbes found in the human digestive system, such as E. coli, which are bacteria that are needed for proper food digestion. It may come as a surprise, but there are several billion times more bacterial cells inside your body than there are human cells and most of them are "good".In French, there is a bacterium called LACTOBACILLE that takes milk and turns it into yogurt. Also, some antibiotics such as penicillin (made from a type of fungus) contain a good type of potential pathogen (although not microscopic).More examples of names of good microbes or pathogens with beneficial uses:Various types of yeast (a type of fungus) are used for the production of beer, bread, and cheese.Most strains of the bacteria E.coli are perfectly harmless and, in fact, can protect you against the more harmful types of enteric pathogens. That is why we have E.coli as part of our normal intestinal flora. Examples of the benefits of good gut bacteria: synthesize vitamins such as folic acid, vitamin K and biotin, and they ferment complex indigestible carbohydrates.Modern biotechnology is often associated with the use of genetically altered microorganisms such as E. coli or yeasts for the production of substances like synthetic insulin or antibiotics. Using the same process, a multitude of drugs are manufactured relatively cheaply, including human growth hormone, clotting factors for hemophiliacs, fertility drugs, erythropoietin and other drugs.In fact, advances in the understanding of biological phenomena, the science of biology that facilitates medical, agricultural, and food advances, are not possible without model microorganisms including: E. coli, B. subtilis, Tobacco mosaic virus, and S. cerevisiae, to name a few.See also the related questions for information about harmful microbes and other beneficial uses of microbes.

How can immunisation stop people catching diseases?
your stomach acids fight it off and they kill the microbes. in a way this is good and bad because if it kills the bad microbes then it kills the good microbes in our body aswell!
Are all microbes good?
No, all microbes are not good. Some are very harmful for us . Some microbes such as- protozoa, bacteria, fungi can be bad for our health. Yeast is a type of microbe which we use to make bread.
Why would it be bad to not have microbes for dying plants?
its good because dying plants when they get microbes they die faster
Why are microbes in your foods?
Microbes are in our food but for a good reason. They are in our food to keep there blood pumping. Microbes are also used in our foods so then our sugar level keeps the same.
Name one good thing microbes do?
Microbes actually do quite a few good things but their most important job is breaking down dead animals and plants. Microbes actually consume dead plant and animal matter.
What good thing can microbes do?
they make you ask questions.....
Are microbes useful are harmful?
Microbes might be either useful or harmful. Those that cause disease are of course, harmful, but there are millions of microbes in your body that aid in functions such as digestion. There are also microbes that occur in food products. Yeast is a good example. Also yogurt contains microbes as part of the product.
