MULTIPLE CHOICE sq
1. To survive, microbial inhabitants have learned to adapt by varying all of the following, except
sq sq sq sq sq sq sq sq sq sq sq sq sq sq
a. growth rate. sq
b. growth in all atmospheric conditions. sq sq sq sq
c. growth at particular temperatures. sq sq sq
d. bacterial shape. sq
ANSWER: D sq
The chapter begins by discussing the way microbial inhabitants have had to evolve to surviv
