Nounorganisms
From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. In biology, an organism is any contiguous living system (such as animal, plant, fungus, or micro-organism). In at least some form, all organisms are capable of response to stimuli, reproduction, growth and development, and maintenance of homoeostasis as a stable whole. An organism may either be unicellular (single-celled) or be composed of, as in humans, many trillions of cells grouped into specialized tissues and organs. The term multicellular (many-celled) describes any organism made up of more than one cell. The term "organism" (Greek ὀργανισμός - organismos, from Ancient Greek ὄργανον - organon "organ, instrument, tool") first appeared in the English language in 1701 and took on its current definition by 1834 (Oxford English Dictionary). Scientific classification in biology considers organisms synonymous with life on Earth. Based on cell type, organisms may be divided into the prokaryotic and eukaryotic groups. The prokaryotes represent two separate domains, the Bacteria and Archaea. Eukaryotic organisms, with a membrane-bounded cell nucleus, also contain organelles, namely mitochondria and (in plants) plastids, generally considered to be derived from endosymbiotic bacteria. Fungi, animals and plants are examples of species that are eukaryotes. More recently a clade, Neomura, has been proposed, which groups together the Archaea and Eukarya. Neomura is thought to have evolved from Bacteria, more specifically from Actinobacteria. From Wikipedia under the

Q. okay. so i have multiple organisms in a 2L bottle and i put the lid on. i want to know if they will survive with the lid screwed on tightly and how. please help!

The decomposing bacteria and fungi require water and oxygen in order to live. A short supply of either will limit the number of microbes that can live on the food. This is the principle behind vacuum packing and freeze drying as methods of preserving food. However, some bacteria, like Clostridium botulinum, the bacteria that cause botulism, can decompose food without oxygen, so long as water is present. In this process, called anaerobic decomposition, dangerous toxins are produced. Dented canned goods are a prime breeding ground for the botulism bacteria. So if you want to throw in the Clostridium botulinum and some waste food with water… [cont.] Answered by Earth Man - Sat Feb 27 22:23:53 2010 What happen to the idea of using living organisms to make computers faster? Q. I remember when I was in college 15 years ago my computer science classes were talking about the possibility of using organisms to make computers faster. I haven't heard anything in awhile about it, has science given up on this idea? Or are they still pursuing it? Asked by Sean - Mon Oct 30 08:54:34 2006 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments A. First, the reason computers have been getting faster is that living organisms (people) have been working hard at it. Second, no one could figure out a way to do anything better by combining them. It's not a good division of labor. Computer designers are accustomed to determinism and reliability. We've done best by letting the humans do what they do best, and letting the computers do what they do best. We do use computer chips as biological sensors. We do use computers to help control prosthetics. But no attempt to integrate living organism to augment computers has succeeded. If some people are still trying to do it, they are understandably not saying much.
