Answer:

What is the largest type of microorganism?

As reported, the biggest type of microorganism is Thiomargarita namibiensis. It was disscovered by Heide Schulz, the biologist of the Max Planck Institute for Marine Microbiology on the Namibian coast in southwestern Africa. This bacterium is a spherical cell with a width of 0.1-0.3 mm (millimeter), but some as large as 0.75 mm.

Explanation:

Microorganisms are tiny organisms that are invisible or invisible to the naked eye. They are small, simple in structure, and are usually called microbes by optical microscopy and electron microscopy. As reported, the biggest type of microorganism is Thiomargarita namibiensis. It was disscovered by Heide Schulz, the biologist of the Max Planck Institute for Marine Microbiology on the Namibian coast in southwestern Africa. This bacterium is a spherical cell with a width of 0.1-0.3 mm (millimeter), but some as large as 0.75 mm. They have a large population and the sediments that live on the coast of Namibia emit white flickering white because they contain tiny sulfur particles. When they are arranged in a row, it is like a string of shiny pearl chains. Therefore, Scholes and other researchers named it "Thiomargarita namibiensis". This largest bacteria grow in precipitates that are deficient in oxygen but rich in nutrients. The precipitate contains a lot of hydrogen sulfide, and the bacteria use nitrate to oxidize the sulfur to obtain energy.
