Where can bacteria grow close to you?
Bacteria are single celled microscopic organisms. Usually a few micrometers in length, individual bacteria have a wide-range of shapes, from spheres to rods to spirals. Bacteria have adaped to every habitat on Earth, growing in soil, acidic hot springs, radioactive waste, seawater, and deep in the Earth's crust. There are usually a few million bacteria in a gram of soil and about a million bacteria cells in a millilitre of water; in all, there are approximately five nonillion
(5000000000000000000000000000000) bacteria in the world. Bacteria are vital in recycling nutrients, and many important steps in nutrient cycles depend on bacteria, such as the fixation of nitrogen from the atmosphere. However, most of these bacteria have not been characterised, and only about half of the bacteria have species that can be cultured in the laboratory. The study of bacteria is known as bacteriology, a type of biology.
How can you easily get rid of it?
Most bacterial cells can be killed with antibacterial soap (except those resistent to soap).
Bacteria is everywhere. In our houses the kitchen is the room where the most bacteria grows. By cleaning counters, any food preparation areas and utensils with soap and hot water will keep bacteria out of our food. Always wash your hands.
