Bacteria (singular, bacterium) are a major group of living organismIn biology and ecology, an organism is a living being. The origin of life and the relationships between its major lineages are controversial. Two main grades may be distinguished, the prokaryotes and eukaryotes. The prokaryotes are generally considered tos. They are microscopic and mostly unicellular, with a relatively simple cell structure lacking a cell nucleus, cytoskeleton, and organelles such as mitochondria and chloroplasts. Such organisms are called prokaryotes, in contrast to organisms with more complex cells, called eukaryotes. The term bacteria has variously applied to all prokaryotes or to a major group of them, depending on ideas about their relationships.

Bacteria are the most abundant of all organisms. They are ubiquitous in soil, water, and as symbionts of other organisms. Many pathogens, including those responsible for many if not most non-hereditary diseases, are bacteria. Most are minute, usually only 0.5-5.0 μm in size, though one type may reach 0.3 mm in diameter ( Thiomargarita). They generally have cell walls, like plant and fungal cells, but with a very different composition ( peptidoglycans). Many move around using flagella, which are different in structure from the flagella of other groups.
