Microorganisms can be divided into two groups:
1. Archea
• Archea are prokaryotic unicellular organisms without cell nucleus or other membrane bound-organelles.
• Their membrane is built from ether lipids, which differs them from bacteria’s cell membrane.
•
2. Bacteria
• Bacteria are also unicellular prokaryotic organisms.
• Bacterial cell membranes are made from phosphoglycerides with ester bonds. Bacterial genome is in a form of circular chromosome.
• They reproduce by binary fission or by budding.
Besides, prokaryotes (Archea and Bacteria) a large number of eukaryotes are also microorganisms. Unicellular eukaryotes contain organelles such as the cell nucleus, the Golgi apparatus and mitochondria. Usually, they reproduce asexually by mitosis. An example of eukaryotic microorganism is Protist.
Answer:
Genetic drift
Explanation:
Genetic drift is a change in genetic allele frequencies of a population. Bottleneck effect, caused by disasters such as in this case, causes genetic drift in a very rapid way hence reducing variability in a population. Reduced genetic variability in a small population is especially threatening because the chances of population surviving environmental changes get slimmer. This is because natural selection acts of genetic variability to get a population to adapt to changes in the environment.
