Microbiology Study Chart

Microbiology is the study of living creatures too small to see with the naked eye. This division of biology includes the study of bacteria, fungi, protozoa, algae, viruses and other important minute creatures. Microbes have an interesting relationship with human beings. They can benefit us (by using them to create life-save pharmaceutical drugs, make food products or clean up hazardous waste) or harm us in profound ways (such as invading healthy tissues and creating diseases and infection). The study of these little creatures is essential to understanding how life on earth functions. Now your favorite biology student can get a great resource in helping them understanding the amazing world of microbes! This chart teaches the basic principles of microbiology, and is intended for any student studying biology or microbiology from high school to upper level college courses.
