The rest, neither we nor the planet could live without. They make what we want, and they get rid of what we don’t want. They are the workhorses of biotechnology.

The rest you see – all one billion of them – are bacteria. Oldest of life-forms (for two billion years the only life on earth), they are structurally the simplest, lacking the cell nucleus found in other microbes. Most reproduce by fission. Bacteria are the planet’s most abundant, most varied, most versatile, and most useful organisms – and among its most deadly.
These microbes dwell among us – and within us – in astronomical numbers.

Congenital causes of disorders act within the womb and result in disorders which are usually obvious at birth such as mongolism, abnormalities of the nervous system and deformities of the heart. These disorders are caused either by a fault in the chromosomal structure of the fertilized egg or by damage caused to the developing embryo in the womb. A developing embryo can be affected by a disease of the mother. For example, during the early months of pregnancy, German measles can lead to abnormalities of the heart and ears. The smoking of more than ten cigarettes a day by a pregnant woman may retard the normal growth of the foetus in the womb. Deformities may also be due to drugs taken during pregnancy.
