Micro-organisms
Our world is filled with living things too small to see. Some of these microorganisms are harmful, and some are helpful. This book explores the amazing diversity of microorganisms and looks at how we depend on them.
Microorganisms and Biotechnology
These topic books cover the most frequently studied options for Biology at Advanced Level. The clear format of these texts will aid students' understanding, whilst extending their knowledge.
A World of Micro-Organisms
The 'Microlife' series introduces readers to the fascinating, unseen kingdoms of the microscopic world. Each title looks at the way in which bacteria, viruses and other micro-organisms affect our bodies and the world around us.
Behaviour of Micro-organisms
Organisms are constantly being bombarded by stimuli in their envi ronment (and also by internal stimuli), and a common way of responding is by movement. This is an aspect of irritability, or excitability, or behaviour. Response to stimuli by movement is found in all organisms: it represents one of the universalities of biology. Yet at the molecular level it is one of the least understood of biological phenomena. Micro-organisms are no exception. If motile, they respond to stimuli by active movement (taxis); if sessile, they respond by growth movements (tropisms). Responses by movement are known among micro-organisms to such stimuli as chemicals, electric current, gravity, light, temperature, touch, and vibrations. The behaviour of micro-organisms is an exciting subject, first of all for its own sake, but in addition because it may reveal facts and concepts that are applicable to understanding behaviour in more complicated organisms (even us) and because it may, help to understand the movement of cells and tissues during differentiation and development of higher plants and animals.
