MULTIPLE CHOICE L




1. To survive, microbial inhabitants have learned to adapt by varying all of the following, except
L L L L L L L L L L L L L L



a. growth rate. L



b. growth in all atmospheric conditions. L L L L



c. growth at particular temperatures. L L L



d. bacterial shape. L




ANS: D L



The chapter begins by discussing the way microbial inhabitants have had to evolve to survive
L L L L L L L L L L L L L L



in many different niches and habitats. It discusses slow growers, rapid growers, and
L L L L L L L L L L L L L



replication with scarce or abundant nutrients, under different atmospheric conditions,
L L L L L L L L L L



temperature requirements, and cell structure. Bacterial shape as a form of evolution is not
L L L L L L L L L L L L L L



discussed.

2. Who was considered the father of protozoology and bacteriology?
L L L L L L L L



a. Anton van Leeuwenhoek L L



b. Louis Pasteur L



c. Carl Landsteiner L



d. Michael Douglas L




ANS: A L



The book discusses Anton van Leeuwenhoek as the inventor of the microscope and the first
L L L L L L L L L L L L L L



person to see the “beasties.” So they dubbed him the father of protozoology and bacteriology.
L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L



The other three individuals were not discussed.

OBJ: Level 1: RecallL L L




3. Prokaryotic cells have which of the following structures in their cytoplasm?
L L L L L L L L L L



a. Golgi apparatus L



b. Ribosomes
c. Mitochondria
d. Endoplasmic reticulum L




ANS: B L



All the structures listed are found in eukaryotic cells, but ribosomes are the only ones that
L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L



apply to prokaryotic cells.
L L L L




OBJ: Level 1: RecallL L L




4. This form of DNA is commonly found in eukaryotic cells.
L L L L L L L L L



a. Linear
b. Circular
c. Plasmid
d. Colloid




TestBanks/ Solution Manuals and Exams L L L L

, ANS: A L



Circular and plasmid DNA are usually found only in bacteria, not eukaryotic cells. Colloid is a
L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L



property of protein molecules and is not associated with nucleotides.
L L L L L L L L L L




OBJ: Level 1: Recall
L L L




5. The nuclear membrane in prokaryotes is
L L L L L



a. missing.
b. impenetrable.
c. a classic membrane.
L L



d. a lipid bilayer membrane.
L L L




ANS: A L



Prokaryotic cells do not have any membrane-bound structures in the cytoplasm including a
L L L L L L L L L L L L



structured nucleus.
L L




OBJ: Level 1: Recall
L L L




6. A microorganism that is a unicellular organism and lacks a nuclear membrane and true
L L L L L L L L L L L L L



L nucleus belongs to which classification?
L L L L



a. Fungi
b. Bacteria
c. Algae
d. Parasite
ANS: B L



Fungi, algae, and parasites are unicellular eukaryotic organisms that contain a true nucleus.
L L L L L L L L L L L L



Bacteria are prokaryotic and do not contain a true nucleus or nuclear membrane.
L L L L L L L L L L L L L

7. In the laboratory, the clinical microbiologist is responsible for all the following, except
L L L L L L L L L L L L



a. isolating microorganisms. L



b. selecting treatment for patients. L L L



c. identifying microorganisms. L



d. analyzing bacteria that cause disease. L L L L




ANS: B L



Clinical microbiologists do not select the treatment for patients. They provide the doctor with
L L L L L L L L L L L L L



the name of the organism and the antibiotics that can kill the bacteria, but not in the final
L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L



selection of treatment protocols.

8. What enables the microbiologist to select the correct media for primary culture and optimize
L L L L L L L L L L L L L



Lthe chance of isolating a pathogenic organism?
