'''Bacteria''' are single-celled microorganisms lacking a [[nucleus]] or any other membrane-bound organelles.  Modern [[pathology]] and [[medicine]] are based on the findings of [[Louis Pasteur]] and later [[Robert Koch]] and [[Charles Laveran]] that bacteria cause many ailments, but most microbes, in agreement with the benevolent nature of the [[Creator]], are actually beneficial to man and nature.<ref name="AiG Bacteria">[http://www.answersingenesis.org/articles/arj/v1/n1/microbes-days-of-creation Microbes and the Days of Creation], Answers: Research Journal.</ref>  Bible scholars have dated their creation between Day 3 and 6 during Creation Week.<ref name="AiG Bacteria">[http://www.answersingenesis.org/articles/arj/v1/n1/microbes-days-of-creation Microbes and the Days of Creation], Answers: Research Journal.</ref>

==Morphology of Bacteria==

Bacteria are usually surrounded by a cell wall consisting of [[peptidoglycan]], and are filled with cytoplasm. Ribosomes within the cytoplasm are responsible for translating the circular bundle of DNA into functional proteins. Some bacteria, such as cyanobacteria, have tightly packed inner membrane folds, which forms a membrane across which photosynthesis can occur<ref>http://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/bacteria/bacteriamm.html</ref>.
