Reproduction in Viruses, Protozoa, Bacteria and Fungi

Learners explore the diverse methods of reproduction in microorganisms: viral replication, binary fission in protozoa and bacteria, and spore formation in fungi. They investigate fungal structure by growing cultures. This topic introduces the invisible world of microbes, which is vital for understanding disease, decomposition, and biotechnology. It prepares Zambian students for ECZ questions on microbiology and its applications in health and the environment.
