This document discusses the nutritional requirements of microbes. It explains that microbes require a variety of essential elements for growth and development, including carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur. Nutrients can be classified as macro or micronutrients. Macro nutrients like carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus make up 95% of a microbial cell's dry weight. Carbon is particularly important as the main constituent of organic materials. Microbes also require trace elements and growth factors. The document describes different types of microbes based on their carbon, energy, and electron sources, including photoautotrophs, chemoautotrophs, heterotrophs, and more. Saprophytic, symbiotic, and

Background
Biologists have long organized living things into large groups called kingdoms.
There are six of them:
Archaebacteria
Eubacteria
Protista
Fungi
Plantae
Animalia
Some recent findings…
In 1996, scientists decided to split Monera into two groups of bacteria:
Archaebacteria and Eubacteria
Because these two groups of bacteria were different in many ways scientists created a new level of classification called a DOMAIN.
Now we have 3 domains
Bacteria
Archaea
Eukarya
KingdomArchaebacteria
Any of a large group of primitive bacteria having unusual cell walls, membrane lipids, ribosomes, and RNA sequences, and having the ability to produce methane and to live in anaerobic, extremely hot, salty, or acidic conditions
The Domain Archaea
“ancient” bacteria
Some of the first archaebacteria were discovered in Yellowstone National Park’s hot springs
Prokaryotes are structurally simple, but biochemically complex
Basic Facts
They live in extreme environments (like hot springs or salty lakes) and normal environments (like soil and ocean water).
All are unicellular (each individual is only one cell).
No peptidoglycan in their cell wall.
Some have a flagella that aids in their locomotion.
Most don’t need oxygen to survive
They can produce ATP (energy) from sunlight
They can survive enormous temperature extremes
They can survive under rocks and in ocean floor vents deep below the ocean’s surface
They can tolerate huge pressure differences
STRUCTURE
Size
Archaea are slightly less than 1 micron long.
A micron is 1/1,000 of a millimeter.
In order to see their cellular features, scientists use powerful electron microscopes.
Shape
Shapes can be spherical or ball shaped and are called coccus.
Others are rod shaped, long and thin, and labeled bacillus.
Variations of cells have been discovered in square and triangular shapes.
STRUCTURE
Locomotion
Some archaea have flagella, hair-like structures that assist in movement.
There can be one or many attached to the cell's outer membrane. Protein networks can also be found on the cell membrane, which allow cells to attach themselves in groups.
Cell Features
Within the cell membrane, the archaea cell contains cytoplasm and DNA, which are in single-looped forms called plasmids.
Most archaeal cells also have a semi-rigid cell wall that helps it to maintain its shape and chemical balance.
This protects the cytoplasm, which is the semi-liquid gel that fills the cell and enables the various parts to function.
STRUCTURE
Phospholipids
The molecules that make up cell membranes are called phospholipids, which act as building blocks for the cell.
In archaea, these molecules are made of glycerol-ether lipids.
Ether Bonding
The ether bonding makes it possible for archaea to survive in environments that are extremely acidic or al

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
2. Introduction
• All living organisms require food and energy for proper
growth and development.
• Microorganisms (or microbes) vary significantly in terms of
the source, chemical form, and amount of essential elements
they need.
• Some examples of these essential nutrients are carbon, oxygen,
hydrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur.
3. Mineral Nutrients
• The microbial nutrients can be classified into two types:
Macro (major) nutrients,
Micro (minor) nutrients.
• It is also known as trace elements on the basis of their amount
required.
4. Macro Nutrients
• The microbial cells contain water accounting for some 80-90%
of their total weight.
• The water is always the major essential nutrient in
quantitative terms.
• The solid matter of cells contain other macro elements such as
carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, sulphur, potassium,
magnesium, sodium, calcium and iron in addition to oxygen
and hydrogen (derivable metabolically from water).
• About 95% of cellular dry weight of microbial cells is
accounted for only six macro elements (O, H, C, N, P and S).
• Carbon assumes great importance as the main constituent of
all organic cell materials.
5. • CO2 is the most oxidized form of carbon.
• The photo-synthetic microorganisms reduce CO2 to organic cell
constituents.
• On the other hand, all the non-photosynthetic microorganisms
obtain their carbon requirement mainly from organic nutrients
which contain reduced carbon compounds.
• These organic compounds not only provide the carbon for
synthesis but also meet the energy requirement by entering into
energy yielding metabolic pathways and are eventually oxidised
to CO2.
• Some microbes have the ability to synthesize all their cellular
components using a single organic carbon source.
• They also need other complex carbon containing components
which they cannot synthesize.
• These components are called growth factors and vitamins.
6. • Sulphur and nitrogen are taken up by most organisms.
• It reduced within the cell and utilized in other biosynthetic
processes.
• The sulphur and nitrogen requirements of most organisms
can also be met with organic nutrients such as amino acids.
• A few microorganisms are capable of reducing elemental
nitrogen to ammonia and this process of nitrogen assimilation
is known as biological nitrogen fixation.
7. • Most of the microorganisms need molecular oxygen for
respiration.
• The oxygen serves as terminal electron acceptor, and such
organisms are referred to as ‘obligate aerobes’.
• There are a few organisms which do not use molecular
oxygen as terminal electron acceptor.
• These microbes are called ‘obligate anaerobes’.
• Aerobes which can grow in the absence of oxygen are called
‘facultative anaerobes’ and the anaerobes which can grow in
the presence of oxygen are referred to as ‘facultative aerobes’.
8. • The microorganisms do not use only macro elements but also
others like cobalt, copper, manganese, molybdenum, nickel,
selenium, tungsten, vanadium and zinc which are required by
all microorganisms.
• These elements are often referred to as minor nutrients or trace
elements.
• They are metals playing the role of cell’s catalysts and many of
them are play a structural role in various enzymes.
• Some microorganisms need additional specific mineral
nutrients, for example, diatoms and some microalgae require
silica, supplied as silicate, to impregnate their cell walls.
Micro Nutrients
9. Growth Factors:
• Besides the mineral nutrients, the microorganisms need some
organic compounds.
• Most of the microorganisms are capable of synthesizing these
organic compounds from simpler carbon resources.
• Others m.or. cannot and need their supply from outside for their
proper growth and development.
• Organic nutrients of this type are known collectively as growth
factors (essential metabolites).
• It can be categorized into three groups (amino acids, purines
and pyrimidines and vitamins) on the basis of their chemical
structure and metabolic function.
• Growth factors fulfill specific needs in biosynthesis of certain
molecules, they are needed in very small amounts.
10. Nutritional types of M.or.
All organism require energy source and electrons for growth apart
from C, H, O.
1) Carbon source:
Autotrophs- use CO2 or biosynthetic carbon sources.
Heterotrophs- use reduced organic molecule from other
organism.
2) Energy source:
Phototrophs- use light as their energy source.
Chemotrophs- obtain energy from oxidation of chemical
compound.
3) Electron source:
Lithotrophs- use reduced inorganic substances as electron
source.
Organotrophs- use electron from organic compound.
11. Microbes can be classify based on carbon, energy and electrons.
Photo-lithotrophic autotrophs or photo-lithoautotrophs:
Eg.- algae, cyanobacteria, purple and green sulphur bacteria
Photo-organoheterotrophs:
Eg.- purple and green non sulphur bacteria
Chemo-lithoautotrophs:
Eg.- sulphur oxidizing bacteria, hydrogen bacteria, nitrifying
bacteria, iron oxidizing bacteria
Chemo-organoheterotrophs:
Eg.- protozoa, fungi, non photosynthetic bacteria, pathogen
12. Types of microbes based on nutrition
1) Autotrophs:
It use CO2 as main component.
Many microbes are photosynthetic and autotrophs.
It use light as energy sources.
Some autotrophs oxidize inorganic molecule and drives
energy from electron transfer.
Eg. Phptoautotrophs, Chemoautotrophs
2) Heterotrophs:
It use reduced organic molecule as carbon source.
Glycolytic pathway produce C for in biosynthesis and
release energy as ATP and NADH.
Eg. Saprophytic, Symbiotic, Parasitic bacteria
13. Autotrophic nutrition: It consist of organic material
formation from inorganic raw material with the help of
energy.
Example: Chemoautotrophs
Photoautotrophs
Heterotrophic nutrition: It use readymade organic
nutrients and does not require energy.
Example: Saprophytic
Symbiotic
Parasitic
14. Photoautotrophs
They are versatile in nature.
They are photosynthetically.
It can be cocci, bacillus and spirilla shaped.
They have two types of pigment.

• It obtain food from remaining organic substances.
• It secrete digestive enzyme which breakdown of complex
insoluble substances in to simple soluble component.
• They are useful or harmful. They can spoil of food items and
denitrification of soil.
• It may be present in animal excreta, fallen leaves, vegetables,
jam, jelly, plant and animal product.
• Anaerobic oxidation of carbohydrate: fermentation
• Anaerobic oxidation of protein: putrefaction
• Anaerobic oxidation of organic compound: decay
Saprophytic bacteria
17. • They lives in association with other organisms.
• Enteric bacteria: E.coli present in human intestine, it is
symbiont and use our food stuff and generate vitamin B & k.
• Rhizobium: it is associated with legumes, also freely present.
It can enter in to root of legume, multiply there and form
nodules. These bacteria obtain food from legumes. it perform
nitrogen fixation in root nodules.
• Nitrogen fixing symbiont bacteria: these bacteria can fix
atmospheric nitrogen and lives symbiotic relation with plants.
• Example: Frankia, Xanthomonas
Symbiotic bacteria
18. • These bacteria lives in contact with other bacteria or host.
• It require organic matter to grow and maintenance.
• It has several modification to overcome barrier of defense
system of host.
• It can release various component that affect the host system.
• Connective tissue break- by Algressin
