Types of Microorganisms. 1. Bacteria. Bacteria are unicellular organisms, about few microns in size (1 micron (Âµm) = 1/1,000 of a millimetre), consisting of DNA, cytoplasm, structures needed for metabolism and reproduction, cell membrane, cell wall and capsule (Picture 1). Certain bacteria use flagella, tail-like appendages, to propel themselves.
