Micro Superheroes. The Most Useful

The fifth book in the MICRO SUPERHEROES series by biologist and artist Olga Posukh is about tiny beings that have brought the most benefit to us, humans. Specifically, it is about the most important model organisms in biology, thanks to... which the most fundamental discoveries have been made.
Meet the new MICRO SUPERHEROES: Escherichia coli bacteria, yeasts, roundworm nematodes, and fruit fly Drosophila!
It can be said that they are not only the most useful superheroes but also the most studied. And it is precisely because of this that we know how we ourselves are structured. Because these superheroes are very similar to us (but not externally, rather at the level of molecular processes).
Their contributions are colossal – they have helped cure numerous diseases, produce medicines, revolutionized the world of biotechnology, and have given rise to many new experimental methods in biology.
Every day in thousands of laboratories around the world, these superheroes help advance biological science, and they will definitely save the world again!
And it is particularly amazing that such astonishing beings live right next to us – in our intestines, in dough for baking, in flower pots, and above a plate of fruit.
