Eubacteria!
Examples of Eubacteria
- E. coli - a bacterium commonly found in the intestines of humans and other animals, where it usually causes no harm. Some strains can cause severe food poisoning, especially in old people and children.
- Yersinia pestis - Yersinia pestis is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped coccobacillus, a facultative anaerobic bacterium that can infect humans and animals. It causes the deadly disease named the plague.
- Streptococcus pneumonia - Streptococcus pneumoniae, or pneumococcus, is a Gram-positive, alpha-hemolytic, facultative anaerobic member of the genus Streptococcus. A significant human pathogenic bacterium, S. pneumoniae was recognized as a major cause of pneumonia in the late 19th century, and is the subject of many humoral immunity studies.
- Salmonella enterica - Salmonella enterica is a rod-shaped, flagellated, facultative anaerobic, Gram-negative bacterium and a member of the genus Salmonella. A number of its serovars are serious human pathogens.

Where is Eubacteria found?
Eubacteria can be found almost everywhere and kill thousands upon thousands of people each year, but also serve as antibiotics producers and food digesters in our stomachs. We use Eubacteria to produce drugs, wine, and cheese.
Fun fact!Eubacteria reproduce through a relatively simple process known as binary fission, meaning "division in half." Most DNA can be contained on a single chromosome, which can reach great lengths if stretched out, and the bacteria duplicate the information and split into two. Archaebacteria use the same process.
