Summary Introduction
To review:
The name of three bacteria that undergo differentiation along with the highlights of differentiation process.
Introduction:
Bacteria are the microscopic, unicellular organisms that are classified as prokaryotes. The prokaryotic cells have a poorly organized nucleus and the genetic material lies within the cytoplasm. These cells are devoid of specialized organelles that are found in the eukaryotic cells.
