Observe the given figure and answer the questions that follow :
(a) Identify the different types and classes of microorganisms and label the parts marked as (A-E).
(b) Under what category (unicellular or multicellular) does each of these (i.e., A-E) fall?
(c) Where are they commonly found?
(d) Give any one common use of each of these in daily life.
Answers
Answer:
Types of Microorganisms
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
List the various types of microorganisms and describe their defining characteristics
Give examples of different types of cellular and viral microorganisms and infectious agents
Describe the similarities and differences between archaea and bacteria
Provide an overview of the field of microbiology
Most microbes are unicellular and small enough that they require artificial magnification to be seen. However, there are some unicellular microbes that are visible to the naked eye, and some multicellular organisms that are microscopic. An object must measure about 100 micrometers (µm) to be visible without a microscope, but most microorganisms are many times smaller than that. For some perspective, consider that a typical animal cell measures roughly 10 µm across but is still microscopic. Bacterial cells are typically about 1 µm, and viruses can be 10 times smaller than bacteria (Figure 1). See Table 1 for units of length used in microbiology.

D and E, I am no sure. They look like Herp Virus and Poliovirus respctively. Actually it had been very long time I read those
