Dear friend,
1)microbes, which include bacteria, fungi and viruses, play a very important role in the ecosystem of our planet.
2)There are 10 times more bacterial cells in our body than human cells.
3)The human body teeming with microbes.
4)We ere born bacteria-free. Bacteria can be good and bad for u.
5)Typically there are between 10,000 and 10 million bacteria on each hand.
6)Microbes perform the important role of breaking down dead organisms into basic nutrients that are essential for life on our planet.
7)Microbes are found nearly everywhere on our planet, including such inhospitable places as the freezing glaciers of Antarctica, volcanic vents miles below the ocean and in the boiling hot spring of Yellowstone Park.
8)Bacteria trade genes as easily as human trade gifts.
9)Despite their vast numbers, bacteria don't take up that much space because bacteria are far smaller than human cells.
10)n average, 44 different types of bacteria reside on the forearm, compared with 19 species living behind the ear.
hope it help u.

facts about microorganisms
1)Bacteria can be found virtually everywhere, from volcanic springs to arctic regions. The human mouth is home to more than 500 species of bacteria. Each square centimeter of your skin averages about 100,000 bacteria.
2)Deinococ with stand blasts of radiation 1,000 times greater than would kill a human being.
3)The largest bacteria found so far can actually be seen without the use of a microscope ( is a single celled giant bacteria that lives in the ocean.
4)Beef tapeworm is the largest parasite (which causes taeniasis in human), which can easily grow 7½ meters or 25 feet long!
5)The smallest known bacteria are so tiny that they were once thought to be viruses (Mycoplasmas).
6)Oldest living Microbes: 250 million-year-old bacteria spores have been revived. In 2000, scientists told that they had revived bacteria that had lain in suspended animation for 250 million years, encased in salt crystals deep in the Earth.
7)In 1918 more people died from the influenza virus (approximately 30 million) than died in the First World War (10 million).
8)Microbes generate at least half the oxygen we breathe.
9)10If a single bacterium (10 to power minus 12 gram with a generation time of 20 min would, if it continued to grow exponentially for 48 hour, produce a population that weighed about 4000 times the weight of the earth.
