MULTIPLE CHOICE h
1. To survive, microbial inhabitants have learned to adapt by varying all of the following, except
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
a. growth rate. h
b. growth in all atmospheric conditions. h h h h
c. growth at particular temperatures. h h h
d. bacterial shape. h
ANSWER: D h
The chapter begins by discussing the way microbial inhabitants have had to evolve to
h h h h h h h h h h h h h
survivein many different niches and habitats. It discusses slow growers, rapid growers, and
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
replication with scarce or abundant nutrients, under different atmospheric conditions,
h h h h h h h h h h
temperature requirements, and cell structure. Bacterial shape as a form of evolution is not
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
discussed.

2. Who was considered the father of protozoology and bacteriology?
h h h h h h h h
a. Anton van Leeuwenhoek h h
b. Louis Pasteur h
c. Carl Landsteiner h
d. Michael Douglas h
ANSWER: A h
The book discusses Anton van Leeuwenhoek as the inventor of the microscope and the first
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
person to see the ―beasties.‖ So they dubbed him the father of protozoology and
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
bacteriology.The other three individuals were not discussed.

3. Prokaryotic cells have which of the following structures in their cytoplasm?
h h h h h h h h h h
a. Golgi apparatus h
b. Ribosomes
c. Mitochondria
d. Endoplasmic reticulum h
ANSWER: B h
All the structures listed are found in eukaryotic cells, but ribosomes are the only ones

5. The nuclear membrane in prokaryotes is
h h h h h
a. missing.
b. impenetrable.
c. a classic membrane.

d. a lipid bilayer membrane.
h h h
ANSWER: A h
Prokaryotic cells do not have any membrane-bound structures in the cytoplasm including
h h h h h h h h h h h
astructured nucleus.

h h h h h
a. Fungi
b. Bacteria
c. Algae
d. Parasite
ANSWER: B h
Fungi, algae, and parasites are unicellular eukaryotic organisms that contain a true
h h h h h h h h h h h
nucleus.Bacteria are prokaryotic and do not contain a true nucleus or nuclear membrane.

h h h h h h h h h h h h
a. isolating microorganisms. h
b. selecting treatment for patients. h h h
c. identifying microorganisms. h
d. analyzing bacteria that cause disease. h h h h
ANSWER: B h
Clinical microbiologists do not select the treatment for patients. They provide the doctor
h h h h h h h h h h h h
withthe name of the organism and the antibiotics that can kill the bacteria, but not in the
