pollen, cat dander, and ragweed
Active stage Ans✓✓✓ bacteria grow and reproduce. Bacteria multiply best in
warm, dark, damp or dirty places. When conditions are favorable, they will grow
and reproduce. When they reach their largest size, they divide into two new cells
called daughter cells. They are called binary fission and are produced every 20-60
minutes depending on the bacteria. Staphylococci grows every 27-30 mins. When
conditions are unfavorable and difficult for them to thrive, Bacteria either die or
become inactive
Bacilli Ans✓✓✓ short rod-shaped bacteria. They are the most common bacteria
and produce diseases such as tetanus, thyroid fever, TB and diphtheria . uses
flagella for locomotion (moving about) or cilia.
Bacteria Ans✓✓✓ single celled microorganisms that have both plant and animal

of destroying fungi). Make sure to follow labels.
Environmental protection agency (EPA) Ans✓✓✓ registers all types of
