Bacteria- for instance, there's good bacteria in yogurt and in your stomach to help you digest things. Bacteria like Fungi break down dead things and help to return them to the soil. But Bacteria are mainly known for the not so nice things they do like cause illness.
Fungi- Fungi are involved in making bread, that's what yeast is, it's also used to make beer, wine and other fermented beverages as well as cheese. Fungi are helpful to some plants like lilacs in that the Fungi provides the plant with useful minerals and the plant provides the Fungi with food, the coexist peacefully.
Protozoans- Protists like Algae can be used for food for human and animal consumption. They are plant like protists.
Viruses- They can be used to study other viruses and help to find cures for diseases. Also variagation of flowering maple leaves and tulips is caused by infection with specific viruses, creating a pretty striped design to the leaves and petals.

Sources of food/drink- Wine, Beer, Cheese, Yogurt, Cottage Cheese Sour Cream are all created by bacteria or fungi(yeast)
Used for baking - yeast (fungi)
Digestion (bacteria)
Fungi also have a symbiotic relationship with plant roots and they form mycorrhizae and allow plants to break down minerals in exchange for food
Most Viruses are harmful HIV/AIDS, HPV but
GBV-C is a nonpathogenic virus found in a large part of the human population, especially those exposed to blood-borne pathogens, the interest in the virus soared because of data pointing to its potential to antagonize HIV and thus block off the latter's harmful effects on the immune system
Some protozoans are harmful to man as they can cause serious diseases. Others are helpful because they eat harmful bacteria and are food for fish and other animals.

Lots of ways. Some people are studying ways of using viruses in addition to chemotherapeutic agents to treat cancer. Bacteria are used to make yogurt, cheese, and other food products. Fungi make wine, and many antibiotics were originally fungally derived.

Some of these things mentioned are found sometimes in food and maximumly in our own body.If somebody sneezed near you it is a virus and it turns to bacteria and if it touches the food the food turns to get the fungi on it .
