Summary
Chapter 1 introduces the study of microbiology for students, most of whom will have had
little or no exposure to the subject. Consequently, you have a good opportunity to provide
an overview of microbiology that demonstrates the important roles microorganisms play in
human activities and in the ecology of the entire biosphere. The ability of microorganisms
to exist independently in nature as free-living cells (Figure 1.1) confers enormous adaptive
advantages over cells of macroorganisms, which are incapable of an independent existence.
1.1 | What Is Microbiology About and Why Is It Important?
Describe to students ways in which microbiology serves as both a basic and applied
biological science. From a basic perspective, the study of microorganisms has been the pri-
mary means by which the fundamental genetic and biochemical properties of living cells have
been revealed. From an applied perspective, microorganisms directly affect the quality of
human life in both detrimental and beneficial ways. Although microorganisms are the causa-
tive agents of some of the most important human, animal, and plant diseases, they are also
used for the industrial production of antibiotics, pharmaceuticals, and foods. Microorganisms
are also increasingly being used for beneficial purposes as diverse as bioremediation of pol-
luted sites, gene therapies for genetic diseases, and the production of biofuels. Microbiology
is therefore a science of far-reaching scope, with applications that affect the quality of human
life in a variety of ways.
You should also emphasize to students the importance of microorganisms in the emer-
gence and maintenance of higher forms of life. From the production of molecular oxygen
(by cyanobacteria) to the biogeochemical cycling of key elements, such as carbon, nitrogen,
and sulfur, microorganisms play a major role in sustaining all life on the planet. Point out in
your course introduction that for all the reasons summarized in this section, microbiology is
the foundation of all biological sciences.
1.2 | Structure and Activities of Microbial Cells
Because microorganisms generally exist as free-living cells, it is important to discuss the
characteristics of cells in general. Emphasize that all cells exhibit a nonrandom organization
with a semipermeable membrane boundary that encompasses an internal system that is not in
equilibrium with its environment. Point out that prokaryotic cells (i.e., all Bacteria and
Archaea) do not contain membrane-bound, internal organelles as traditionally described for
eukaryotic cells (the Eukarya; Figure 1.2). In particular, the organization of prokaryotic DNA
