An overview of prokaryotic life Prokaryotes were the earliest organisms on Earth and evolved alone for 1.5 billion years. Today, prokaryotes still dominate the biosphere. Their collective biomass outweighs
3、 all eukaryotes combined by at least tenfold.Copyright 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Prokaryotes are wherever there is life. Many of them thrive in habitats that are too cold, too hot, too salty, too acidic, or too alkaline for eukaryotes. The vivid reds, oranges, and

During the 14th century, a bacterial disease known as bubonic plague, spread

Other types of diseases caused by bacteria include tuberculosis, cholera, many sexually transmissible diseases, and certain types of food poisoning.Copyright 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings However, most bacter
