Bacteria break down (or decompose) dead organisms, animal waste, and plant litter to obtain nutrients. But microbes don't just eat nature's waste, they recycle it. The process of decomposition releases chemicals (such as carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus) that can be used to build new plants and animals. That is, chemicals that used to be a flower or a vegetable will eventually become part of another living thing.
microbes. Resident microbiota typically colonize the surface of the skin, mucous membranes, digestive tract, upper respiratory system and distal portion of the urogenital system. These microbes do not typically harm the host, while they benefit from feeding on the cellular waste and dead cells of the host's body.uring and after birth, the newborn becomes colonized by microbes, most of which are beneficial to human health. These bacteria are called normal flora or normal microbiota. Article Summary: The human body is made up of about 10 trillion cells, but hosts 100 trillion more.
