Science Form 5

The document discusses different types of microorganisms including bacteria, fungi, protozoa, viruses, and algae. It provides characteristics and definitions for each type, describing their size, shape, nutrition, respiration, reproduction, and habitats. Bacteria are the smallest and most common microbes, while fungi do not have chlorophyll and feed on dead or living organisms. Protozoa are single-celled animal-like organisms that can be parasites or obtain nutrients from their surroundings. Viruses are not considered living but can reproduce inside host cells and cause disease. Algae are simple plant-like microbes that possess chlorophyll and can make their own food through photosynthesis.
