Karla is reading about a type of single-celled microorganism that can live inside the human body. This type of organism can be either harmful or harmless to people, depending on the type. One harmless type lives in the intestines and helps the body digest food. One harmful type can cause strep throat. Which type of organism is Karla most likely reading about?
