Explanation:

Technically, Microorganisms are also referred to as microbes are organisms that are microscopic and not visible to the naked eyes. The major classification of microorganisms are Viruses, Bacteria, Archaea, Fungi, and Protists. Though viruses are not considered living entities because they are inert outside the host cell.

  • Salmonella typhi causes Typhoid fever.
