Biology research has found that the human body contains 10 times more bacterial cells than human cells. The human genome contains approximately 20,000 protein-coding genes, which is less than the 25,000 genes found in the fruit fly. The tardigrade, also known as the water bear, is a microscopic animal that is capable of surviving extreme environments including in space.
