Rogers State University * Microbiology 1.Introduction Microbiology is the study of microorganisms, which are unicellular or multicellular microscopic organisms. This includes eukaryotes such as fungi and algae(藻类) and prokaryotes such as bacteria. Viruses, though not strictly classed as living organisms, are also studied. Microbiology is a broad term which includes many branches like virology, mycology, parasitology and others. A person who specializes in the area of microbiology is a microbiologist. 2. Bacteria Most bacteria (singular: bacterium) are unicellular microorganisms. They grow in soil, acidic hot springs, radioactive waste, seawater, and deep in the Earth's crust. There are approximately ten times as many bacterial cells as human cells in the human body, with large numbers of bacteria on the skin and in the digestive tract. A few are beneficial, some are pathogenic bacteria and cause infectious diseases. 2.1 Morphology Bacteria display a wide diversity of shapes and sizes, called morphologies. Most bacterial species are either spherical, called cocci (sing. coccus) or rod-shaped, called bacilli (sing. bacillus). Some rod-shaped bacteria, called vibrio（弧菌）, are slightly curved or comma-shaped; others, can be spiral-shaped, called spirilla（螺菌）.
