MULTIPLE CHOICE t




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


a. growth rate. t


b. growth in all atmospheric conditions. t t t t


c. growth at particular temperatures. t t t


d. bacterial shape. t




ANSWER: D t


The chapter begins by discussing the way microbial inhabitants have had to evolve to survivein
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t


many different niches and habitats. It discusses slow growers, rapid growers, and replication
t t t t t t t t t t t t t


with scarce or abundant nutrients, under different atmospheric conditions, temperature
t t t t t t t t t t


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

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


a. Anton van Leeuwenhoek t t


b. Louis Pasteur t


c. Carl Landsteiner t


d. Michael Douglas t




ANSWER: A t


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


person to see the ―beasties.‖ So they dubbed him the father of protozoology and
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t


bacteriology.The other three individuals were not discussed.

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


a. Golgi apparatus t


b. Ribosomes
c. Mitochondria
d. Endoplasmic reticulum t




ANSWER: B t


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

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

, ANSWER: A t


Circular and plasmid DNA are usually found only in bacteria, not eukaryotic cells. Colloid isa
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t


property of protein molecules and is not associated with nucleotides.

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


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


d. a lipid bilayer membrane.

ANSWER: A t


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


astructured nucleus.

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


ttruenucleus belongs to which classification?
t t t t t


a. Fungi
b. Bacteria
c. Algae
d. Parasite
ANSWER: B t


Fungi, algae, and parasites are unicellular eukaryotic organisms that contain a true
t t t t t t t t t t t


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

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


a. isolating microorganisms. t


b. selecting treatment for patients. t t t


c. identifying microorganisms. t


d. analyzing bacteria that cause disease. t t t t




ANSWER: B t


Clinical microbiologists do not select the treatment for patients. They provide the doctor withthe
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t


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


of treatment protocols.
