Microbes

According to my knowledge, all microbes are unicellular!

 

The question is, are they responsive or have very primitive thinking / selective?

Theisolated, unicellular microbe is probably more a lab creature than what is found in nature. Some maybe most form cooperative/functional assocations from biofilms to mycelial mats - and the coenocytic fungi grow as mycelia without cells walls. They are responsive - to environmental stimuli, metabolically (feedack inhibition), positionally (e.g. chemotaxis). defensively, etc. and cells communicate(quorum sensing).

Then, like metals (mostly), get attracted to any magnet. That's how they infect living organisms and manipulate nutrition? If this was the nature, isn't it better for us to learn MICROBONGFU? This means that they are growing in certain environment exponentially! :D
