What does "being a human colony" mean? A human colony is by definition human, not bacteria.

Also *a bacterium.

Sorry, I meant part of a colony, I guess. Thx for the correction.

Can see my question that way.

But I think I meant whether the lifecycle of a bacteria including being part of a human cellular colony.

Like we are crucial to and perhaps important the reproductive phase of them.

Well, there are plenty of bacteria who form colonies, though I'm not sure if any do it as part of a stage of life. I'm not aware of any bacteria that have stages of life at all, like how insects have larval, pupal, etc. But bacteria do experience stages as a colony: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacterial_growth

100% true if we extend 'life-cycle' to the entire evolutionary organism/branch, not only one instance..

You reached the end

If I said: 'There is a bacteria whose life cycle includes being a human colony', how true would that be? | Spyke
