TYPE BACTERIA
EXPLANATION 1) Second smallest living things 2) Can be seen by electron microscopes 3) Simple structure the largest number 1) Only 1 cell 2) About 0.5 to 10 micrometer 1) Cocci 2) bacili 3) spirillia 4) vibrio 1) With chlorophyll- makes own food 2) Without chlorophyll saprophytes (dead organisms) or parasites (alive organisms)
SIZE SHAPE
NUTRITION
RESPIRATION 1) Aerobic 2) Anaerobic REPRODUCTION 1) Binary fission 2) Spores 3) Conjugation HABITAT 1) Damp places 2) present everywhere
TYPE FUNGI
EXPLANATION 1) Do not have chlorophyll 2) Include mushrooms, toadstools, moulds and yeasts 3) Do not have roots, stems or leaves 1) Some are large (mushrooms) 2) Some are very tiny (moulds and yeast) 3) Most fungi are multicellular except yeast 1) Variety of shape 2) Round (puffballs), long filaments (moulds) and oval shape (yeast) 1) Cannot make own food no chlorophyll 2) Either saprophytic feeds on decaying matter 3) Or parasitic feeds on other living organisms

TYPE PROTOZO A
EXPLANATION 1) Animals 2) Made up of only once cell (unicellular) 3) Common protozoa amoeba, paramecium & plasmodium 1) Between 5 250 microns (very tiny) 1) Various shape 2) Shapeless (amoeba), slipper (paramecium) & round plasmodium 1) Parasites (plasmodium) or obtain food from the surroundings or autotrophic

NUTRITION
RESPIRATION 1) aerobic REPRODUCTION 1) Binary fission 2) Asexual or sexual HABITAT 1) Live independently or colony 2) Damp soil, river, ponds, water
TYPE VIRUSES
EXPLANATION 1) Not classified as plants or animals 2) They do not carry out all the life processes 1) The smallest microorganism 2) Can only be seen under electron microscope 1) Various shape 2) Spherical, rectangular or rod shaped 1) Parasites on living cells 2) Causes damage or diseases to their hosts

SHAPE NUTRITION
RESPIRATION REPRODUCTION 1) Reproduce themselves in the host cells 2) Multiply quickly HABITAT 1) Live only in living cells 2) Form crystals when they are out of the living cells 3) Can survive for years before they find a new host
TYPE ALGAE
EXPLANATION 1) Very simple plants with chlorophyll 1) Some are microscopic, some are very large 1) Round (pleurococcus), oval shaped (chlamydonas), long filaments (syprogyra) and network like structures (seaweed) 1) Possess chlorophyll 2) Make their own food
NUTRITION
