QUÉ SIGNIFICA BACTERIA EN INGLÉS

Bacterias

Bacteria

Las bacterias constituyen un gran dominio de microorganismos procariotas. Típicamente unos pocos micrómetros de longitud, las bacterias tienen un número de formas, que van desde esferas a barras y espirales. Las bacterias se encuentran entre las primeras formas de vida que aparecen en la Tierra, y están presentes en la mayoría de sus hábitats. Las bacterias habitan el suelo, el agua, las aguas termales acídicas, los desechos radiactivos y las porciones profundas de la corteza terrestre. Las bacterias también viven en relaciones simbióticas y parasitarias con plantas y animales. También se sabe que han florecido en naves espaciales tripuladas. Hay típicamente 40 millones de células bacterianas en un gramo de tierra y un millón de células bacterianas en un mililitro de agua dulce. Hay aproximadamente 5 × 1030 bacterias en la Tierra, formando una biomasa que excede la de todas las plantas y animales. Las bacterias son vitales en el reciclaje de nutrientes, con muchas de las etapas en los ciclos de nutrientes dependientes de estos organismos, como la fijación de nitrógeno de la atmósfera y la putrefacción. En las comunidades biológicas que rodean los respiraderos hidrotermales y las filtraciones frías, las bacterias proporcionan los nutrientes necesarios para mantener la vida mediante la conversión de compuestos disueltos como el sulfuro de hidrógeno y el metano en energía.

Bacteria constitute a large domain of prokaryotic microorganisms. Typically a few micrometres in length, bacteria have a number of shapes, ranging from spheres to rods and spirals. Bacteria were among the first life forms to appear on Earth, and are present in most of its habitats. Bacteria inhabit soil, water, acidic hot springs, radioactive waste, and the deep portions of Earth's crust. Bacteria also live in symbiotic and parasitic relationships with plants and animals. They are also known to have flourished in manned spacecraft. There are typically 40 million bacterial cells in a gram of soil and a million bacterial cells in a millilitre of fresh water. There are approximately 5×1030 bacteria on Earth, forming a biomass which exceeds that of all plants and animals. Bacteria are vital in recycling nutrients, with many of the stages in nutrient cycles dependent on these organisms, such as the fixation of nitrogen from the atmosphere and putrefaction. In the biological communities surrounding hydrothermal vents and cold seeps, bacteria provide the nutrients needed to sustain life by converting dissolved compounds such as hydrogen sulphide and methane to energy.
