What I mean by Microbiology?

       

Microbiology is a branch of biology, which deals with microorganisms and their contribution to other life forms. Microbiology is an aggregate of three Greek words :- mikros = small, bio = related to living  forms of life and logy = study. Microbiology provides the path to reach to the roots of evolution of organisms. It is a detailed study of origin of life. Microbes, at every stage has evolved as both friend and foe to human beings. The basic concept of life has been acknowledged by studying them. The microbes have contributed tremendously in various fields. Medical science has developed to its peak since 200 years as a result of studying them. Viruses among the microbes have remained as a bridge between the living and non-living. The human age would have been half of the percent age without the innovation of medicines. Microbiology is an ocean of opportunities for them who are eager to study the basis of life. They are omnipresent unlike other organisms. In brief, it can be said that the building of macro world stands still on the pillars of micro world.
