    Study Notes

    Microbial Organisms: Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes

    • Microorganisms fall into two primary groups: prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
    • Prokaryotes lack a nucleus and organelles, while eukaryotes have both.
    • Bacteria are prokaryotic organisms distinguished by their cellular properties.
    • Fungi, protozoa, and unicellular algae are eukaryotic, possessing a nucleus and organelles within their cells.
    • Viruses are neither prokaryotic nor eukaryotic due to their structural simplicity and unique characteristics.
