Three groups of low
Introduction:
Different criteria can be used in which, the bacteria can be classified such as morphology in which the bacteria can be classified on the basis of their shape, size, flagellar structure, pilli. Growth in which microbe can be classified on the basis of the medium on which they grow, whether they prefer broth or agar media. Nutrition in which microorganisms can be divided on the basis of the mode of nutrition they follow. They can be either phototrophs, organotrophs or chemoautotrophs and many more.
