Study Notes
- Microbial life forms are widely distributed in the biosphere.
- They can be found in the atmosphere, hydrosphere, and lithosphere.
- Microorganisms can survive in extreme environments.
- They are present as long as there is organic material available for energy metabolism.
- Total sterility is rare and can still be ended by microbial recontamination and recolonization.
- The learning platform is an online simulation and demonstration.
- Materials required include pencils, PSA plates, water and soil samples, test tubes, inoculating loop, and alcohol lamp.
- PSA plates should be prepared for at least three plates from activity 2.
- Inoculating loop can be improvised with a toothpick or cotton bud.
- Water samples are needed for bacteria isolation.
