  • Bacteria is a type of biological cell. they constitute a large domain of prokaryotic microorganisms. typically a few micrometres in length , bacteria have a number of shapes , ranging from spheres to rods and spirals.


  • Bacteria (singular: bacterium) are single-celled organisms which can only be seen through a microscope. They come in different shapes and sizes, and their sizes are measured in micrometer - which is a millionth part of a meter. There are several different types of bacteria, and they are found everywhere and in all types of environment.br / Based on the morphology, DNA sequencing, conditions required and biochemistry, scientists have come up with the following classification with 28 different bacterial phyla:br /Acidobacteriabr /Actinobacteriabr /Aquificaebr /Bacteroidetesbr /Caldisericabr /Chlamydiaebr /Chlorobibr /Chloroflexibr /Chrysiogenetesbr /Cyanobacteriabr /Deferribacteresbr /Deinococcus-Thermusbr /Dictyoglomibr /Elusimicrobiabr /Fibrobacteresbr /Firmicutesbr /Fusobacteriabr /Gemmatimonadetesbr /Lentisphaeraebr /Nitrospirabr /Planctomycetesbr /Proteobacteriabr /Spirochaetesbr /Synergistetesbr /Tenericutesbr /Thermodesulfobacteriabr /Thermotogaebr /Verrucomicrobia
