A human cell is the basic unit that makes up your body, kind of like tiny rooms in a massive mansion working together to keep everything running. Picture it as a microscopic bubble with a flexible outer layer—the membrane—that decides what enters or exits. Inside, there’s a gooey mix called cytoplasm, packed with tiny machines … Read more
The normal flora, or microbiota, in the mouth and gut refers to the community of tiny organisms—like bacteria, fungi, and viruses—that naturally live in these areas without causing harm. In the mouth, hundreds of species thrive, especially in warm, moist spots like the tongue, teeth, and gums. Common bacteria include Streptococcus, which helps break down food … Read more
typical flora of skin, hair, and nails is the stable community of microorganisms—mostly bacteria and fungus—that live on the outside surfaces of the human body without causing damage under typical circumstances. These communities, sometimes referred to as the skin microbiome, occupy ecological niches, fight against infections, and generate molecules that stop microbial invasion, therefore safeguarding … Read more

This community of microbes is called the human microbiome. Most of these organisms aren’t harmful—in fact, many are essential for health. They help digest food, produce vitamins, and even … Read more

Think of it as a network of pathways that carry messages back and forth. While the brain and spinal cord form the central command center, the peripheral system handles communication with … Read more
What is Rhizosphere? The rhizosphere is the small area of soil around plant roots that is directly affected by root secretions and the microbes that live there. Usually goes about one millimeter from the root surface and includes soil that sticks to the roots and can be easily shook off. Root exudates and rhizodeposition: Roots … Read more
What is Dutch elm disease (DED)? A deadly fungal disease that infects elm trees and stops water from flowing through their vessels, causing them to wilt and die.
