Taxonomy. Bacteria are members of the prokaryote group. In contrast to eukaryote cells, bacteria lack a cell nucleus and customarily have no organelles. The bacteria domain can be grouped into two major categories: (a) Eubacteria and (b) Cyanobacteria.here are approximately 50 million bacterial organisms in a single gram of typical surface soil. The worldwide bacterial biomass exceeds that of all plants and animals on Earth. However, the majority of bacteria have not yet been characterised.
