Microbiology: Study of Microorganisms(study guide
questions) With Complete Solutions
Acid-fast staining Correct Answer Detects Mycobacterium
tuberculosis
Algae characteristics Correct Answer Photosynthetic
organisms, found in fresh and salt waters
Archaea characteristics Correct Answer Extreme environments,
closer to eukaryotes
Archaea vs bacteria Correct Answer Archaea lack PG in cell
walls, have different composition
Aseptic technique Correct Answer Preventing contamination in
experiments
Asexual vs sexual spore formation Correct Answer Asexual:
mitotic division, sexual: genetic combination
Bacteria Correct Answer Microscopic organisms, can be

a scientific name
Biotechnology Correct Answer Manipulating microorganisms
to make products in industry
Carbohydrate fermentation in differential media Correct
Answer Fermentation of sugars with pH indicator for color
change
Chromosome vs plasmid Correct Answer Chromosome: single
circular DNA strand, plasmid: nonessential DNA
Cilia Correct Answer Small hair-like structures found in
protozoa and certain animal cells
Classification Correct Answer Arrangement of organisms into
categories
Complex media Correct Answer Contains complex materials,
useful for a range of microbes
