MICROORGANISM
ROLE OF MICROORGANISM
Decaying process
Decaying process
1. Many bacteria help decompose
(menguraikan) dead organism and animal
wastes into chemical compound such as
ammonia.
2. In sewage treatment plant ( loji rawatan
kumbahan),
bacteria are use to break down the complex animal and
plant matter into simple compounds
What is the benefit (kebaikan)?
Its enriches the soil and makes essential
substances available to plants in a form that
they can use.

ia menjadikan tanah lagi subur dan membekalkan
sebatian yang diperlukan oleh tumbuhan.



ROLES MICROORGANISM IN DIGESTION
ONE OF THE MAIN COMPONENT
OF PLANT IS CELLULOSE
Cellulose is hard to digest by the animal.
How they digest the cellulose?
Cellulose can be digest by enzyme named
cellulase.
How they can get cellulase?
Herbivores depend on bacteria that live in their stomach to digest
cellulose

This bacteria secretes (merembeskan) cellulase into the stomach

Besides animal?
FOOD DIGESTION
Certain kinds of bacteria live in intestines of
human (usus manusia) and other
microorganism.
Why they live in our intestines?
They help in digestion and destroy harmful
microorganism.
BACTERIA THAT HELP IN DIGESTION.
1.Lactobacillus Acidophilus
2.Bifidobacteria
3.Streptococus Thermophilus
4.Lactobacilus Bulgaricus

Where we can find this bacteria
except in intestines ?
YOGURT YAKULT
MEDICINE
Some type of microorganism produce
important drugs called ANTIBIOTICS..
Functions of antibiotics.
Weaken
Destroy other microorganism

Penicillium notatum is a GREEN MOULD

Its produces antibiotic called PENICILLIN


Disease That Can Cured By Using Penicillin
Genetically enginereed
Some bacteria have been genetically
engineered

Why?
To produce certain vaccines that are used to prevent
infectious disease.
Produce insulin which used to treat diabetics
AGRICULTURE
Bacteria play important roles to promote the
plant growth..
Bacteria
Break down dead plants and dead animals by releasing
AMMONIA
AMMONIA
Adds nitrogen into the soil (tanah)
The nitrogen fixing bacteria in the soil change
the ammonia into nitrates.



This nitrates will be used by plants

Ammonia
Nitrates
nitrogen fixing bacteria
Why plants need nitrates?
They need nitrates to make amino acids


But.
Pea and bean plants use bacteria Rhizobium
which directly convert nitrogen into acid
amino
Nitrates
Amino acids
Rhizobium bacteria
Live in plant roots

INDUSTRY
Bacteria are used in the production of
Milk
Yogurt
Cheese
Vinegar
Soy sauce
Chocolate
Certain vitamin B
Citric acids
Production of bread
1. Yeast causes the bread to rise by producing
carbon dioxide from the carbohydrates in the
dough.
2. Carbon dioxide gas bubbles released in the
dough causes it to rise.
3. So the bread become fluffy
YEAST
Production of milk, yogurt n cheese
Certain bacteria are
used in the production
of milk, yogurt and
cheese.
This process called as
FERMENTATION
