Bacteria
What are bacteria?
Bacteria are single-celled microscopic organisms, the most abundant form of life on Earth.
What is microbiology?
Microbiology is the study of living organisms, particularly microscopic ones.
What is volume?
Volume is the amount of space occupied by a substance, measured in milliliters (mL) for liquids and cubic centimeters (cm³) for solids.
What is the difference between mass and weight?
Mass is constant and does not change with location, while weight changes with the force of gravity

What do bacteria need to grow?
Bacteria need nutrients for energy, water to stay hydrated, and a suitable environment to grow in.
What are microorganisms?
Microorganisms are living things that are too small to be seen by the naked eye, including bacteria, viruses, and some fungi
How do you measure volume?
To measure the volume of a liquid, use a graduated cylinder
How do you calculate density?
Density = Mass/Volume

Are all bacteria harmful?
No, some bacteria are beneficial, such as those in our bodies that help with digestion.
Where can you find microbes?
Microbes can be found in our bodies, food, soil, water, and air
What is the meniscus?
The meniscus is the curve formed by the surface of a liquid in a container
What happens to mass on the moon?
Your mass remains the same on the moon, but your weight decreases due to lower gravity.

Name a safe type of bacteria. (where is it found?)
Yogurt contains safe bacteria that strengthen the digestive tract
What is a pathogen?
A pathogen is a disease-causing microorganism
What units measure volume?
Volume is measured in milliliters (mL) for liquids and cubic centimeters (cm³) for solids.
What is low density?
Low density refers to objects that are light and take up a lot of space

What is a bacterial colony?
A bacterial colony is a group of identical cells derived from a single mother cell
Why study microorganisms?
Studying microorganisms helps us understand pathogens and how to prevent or treat diseases.
How do you calculate volume for a rectangular prism?
length × width × height
Give an example of what happens if an object with high density is put into a graduated cylinder filled with water.
The object would sink
