commensals, soil bacteria, and food fermenting bacteria

exposure to these things led to use coevolving with bacteria

environments

this can caffect what is in your human microbiome

Bacteriodtes, actinobacteria, firmicuted

these are bacteris that are majoy phyla in the entire human body

Bacteriodetes

gram neg, mainly decomposers of comple organic compounds

Actinobacteria

gram pos, genera: cutibacterium

firmicutes

both spore formers and non-spore formers

half snapping cell division

what kind of cell division foes coryneform bacteria do

lactic acid bacteria

what kind of bacteria are streptococcus

Dental cavities

are caused by lactic acid bacteris, but only if there is excess sugar

lowers pH

what does sugar to the environment that makes our enamel solubilized
