Whittaker introduced a classification method of living organisms which was much more refined to remove all the demerits of Linnaeus&#8217;s classification. The new classification process grouped organisms according to their cellular structure, reproductive process, thallus organisation, mode of nutrition, and phylogenetic relationship. The organisms were classified into the following five groups:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Monera<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Protista<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fungi<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plantae<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Animalia<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>What Is Meant By Bacteria?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bacteria are single-celled organisms that belong to the prokaryotic group of living organisms. They are known to lack a nucleus and few organelles. Bacteria are the first living organisms that ever came on earth and evolved in different ways to form various microorganisms.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A group of bacteria display exceptionally diverse metabolic capabilities. Moreover, they can use most of the organic compounds and a few inorganic compounds as a source of food. Therefore, they are essential to maintain the ecological balance. Functions like decaying of dead organisms, nitrogen fixation, etc., can get delayed with the absence of bacteria.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Structure of Bacteria<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although bacteria are tiny microscopic organisms, they have a well-structured shape which consists of the following parts:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Capsule<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: It consists of polysaccharides which is a complex carbohydrate. Capsule performs multiple functions in a bacteria, but its most essential function is to protect the bacteria from drying and prevent larger organisms&#8217; phagocytosis. It is the major virulence factor among serious disease-causing bacteria.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Cell envelope<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: It consists of two to three layers. These layers are called the cell wall &#8211; the inner cytoplasmic membrane and the outer capsule. However, the outer capsule is found in very rare cases.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Cell wall<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: All the bacteria have a rigid cell wall made of peptidoglycan and a protein-sugar molecule. The wall gives the cell a proper shape and surrounds the cytoplasmic membrane for protection from environmental factors. It also ensures adequate attachment of the flagella and pili, which originates from the cytoplasm membrane and extends through the wall to the outside environment.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Cytoplasm<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: The cytoplasm is the part where functions like replication, metabolism, and cell growth occur. It is a gel-like compound made up of enzymes, water, wastes, nutrients, and gases. Moreover, it contains cell structures, including a chromosome, ribosomes, and plasmids.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Cytoplasmic membrane<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: It is a layer of protein and phospholipids. It encloses the inner parts of the bacteria to regulate the flow of materials throughout the cell. This is the structural trait that bacteria share with other living cells. In addition, it acts as a barrier and allows only selective interaction with the outside environment. This membrane is very organised and has asymmetric sides. Both sides have different functions and surfaces. These membranes are highly dynamic and constantly adapt to various conditions.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Flagella<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: They are hairlike structures that help in the movement of bacteria. Some bacteria have them on either end, while others are all over the surface. This part is crucial in the bacteria&#8217;s body because it keeps the bacteria away from toxic substances, promotes movement towards nutritional substances, and for photosynthetic cyanobacteria, flagella help in the movement towards the light.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Nucleoid<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: It is a part of the cytoplasm which contains chromosomal DNA. It does not have a membrane; instead, it is just an area of cytoplasm. Most bacteria contain a single, circular chromosome that performs replication. However, some bacterial species are known to have more than two strands.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Pili<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Several bacterial species have this structure which looks like a hairlike projection. It images from the outer cell surface of bacteria. These tiny parts are responsible for clamping bacteria to other surfaces and cells like intestines, teeth, etc. without this part, illness-causing bacteria can hardly attach themselves to the host body. Special pili are also responsible for conjugation, which is when bacteria exchange the fragments of plasmid DNA.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>How can we classify bacteria?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bacteria are classified<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">into different categories according to their characteristics and features. However, they are generally classified according to the following features:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Composition of the cell wall<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Classification\u00a0<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Examples of bacteria<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lipopolysaccharide cell wall<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gram-negative bacteria<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Peptidoglycan cell wall<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gram-positive bacteria<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Nutrition method<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Classification\u00a0<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Examples of bacteria<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Heterotrophic Bacteria<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Illness causing bacterias<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Autotrophic Bacteria<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cyanobacteria<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Respiration method<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Classification\u00a0<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Examples of bacteria<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aerobic Bacteria<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mycobacterium<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anaerobic Bacteria<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Actinomyces<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Shape\u00a0<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Classification\u00a0<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Shape of bacteria<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Examples of bacteria<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Spirilla or spirochete\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Spiral\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Spirillum volutans<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vibrio<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Comma\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vibrio cholerae<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bacillus\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rod\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Escherichia coli\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Coccus<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Spherical\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Streptococcus pneumoniae<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Number of flagella<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Classification\u00a0<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Examples of bacteria<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Atrichos<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Corynebacterium diphtherae<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Monotrichous<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vibrio cholerae<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lophotrichous<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pseudomonas<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Amphitrichous<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rhodospirillum rubrum<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Peritrichous<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bacillus<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Temperature requirement<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Classification\u00a0<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Examples of bacteria<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Psychrophiles<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vibrio psychroerythrus<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Psychrotrophs<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aeromonas<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mesophiles<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Salmonella<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thermophiles<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thermus aquaticus<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hyperthermophiles<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pyrolobus fumari<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3>How do bacteria reproduce?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most bacteria reproduce through a process known as binary fission. Conceptually it is considered a simple process where one cell grows to its double size and eventually gets divided into two parts. However, the bacteria must divide at the right time to remain competitive and viable. It is also important that the bacteria produce the exact copy of itself with all the important genetic information. The reproduction rate in bacteria depends on factors such as availability of nutrition and a favourable temperature. Some bacteria like Escherichia coli and E.coli reproduce around two million daughter cells every seven hours under favourable conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although most bacteria reproduce asexually, some rare ones follow a sexual reproduction method. Generally, sexual reproduction happens in bacteria for adaptation according to the change in the surrounding. Caenorhabditis elegans are one of the bacteria that reproduce asexually.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>What are useful bacteria?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Generally, we think all the bacterias are harmful and cause disease. However, some healthy bacteria help human beings in numerous ways. Some of the benefits of useful bacteria are:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They help produce antibiotics to fight various diseases caused by harmful bacteria.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They enhance our immune system and aid in the digestion of food.
