millimeter (mm) Ans: 10^-3
micrometer (um) Ans: 10^-6

Microbes Ans: Organisms and acellular agents too small to be seen by
the unaided eye
Assignment Expert
Robert Hooke Ans: made first compound microscope, coined the term
"cell"
Guru01 - Stuvia
Antoine van Leeuwenhoek Ans: built single-lens magnifier, first to
observe single-felled microbes

2026
microbes spontaneously generated
Lazzaro Spallanzani Ans: also disproved the spontaneous generation

theory, used broth covered and uncovered
Louis Pasteur Ans: proposed the germ theory of disease, idea that the
transmission of microbes is what causes disease, also used Swan neck
flasks and broth to disprove spontaneous generation
germ theory of disease Ans: idea that infectious diseases are caused by
microorganisms, important features: transmission, pure culture, colonies
Robert Koch Ans: Father of microbiology, four postulates to establish
link between specific microbe and a disease
Koch's first postulate Ans: Microorganism must be present in every case
of the disease and absent from healthy organisms
, 2 for specific request mail
Koch's Second Postulate Ans: Microbe must be isolated and grown in
