A microorganism, or microbe, [a] is an organism of microscopic size, which may exist in its single-celled form or as a colony of cells.. The possible existence of unseen microbial life was suspected from ancient times, such as in Jain scriptures from sixth century BC India.
It has been proposed that the early Earth hosted multiple origins of life, some of which produced chemical variations on life as we know it. [1] [2] Some argue that these alternative life forms could have become extinct, either by being out-competed by other forms of life, or they might have become one with the present day life via mechanisms like lateral gene transfer.

Under a magnifier, a splash of seawater teems with microscopic life. Microscopic life undersea is diverse and still poorly understood, such as for the role of viruses in marine ecosystems. [13] Most marine viruses are bacteriophages, which are harmless to plants and animals, but are essential to the regulation of saltwater and freshwater ...
