A very small organism that can only be seen with a microscope, like bacteria

Real World Example

Imagine trying to find your missing socks in a huge pile of laundry. Just like how you have to sift through a mountain of clothes to find that one tiny sock, scientists use microscopes to find microorganisms like bacteria that are hidden from the naked eye. The connection here is that both scenarios involve identifying something very small and easily overlooked within a larger context—your sock in the laundry and bacteria in the environment.
