MULTIPLE CHOICE bb
1. To survive, microbial inhabitants have learned to adapt by varying all of the following, except
bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb
a. growth rate. bb
b. growth in all atmospheric conditions. bb bb bb bb
c. growth at particular temperatures. bb bb bb
d. bacterial shape. bb
ANSWER: D bb
The chapter begins by discussing the way microbial inhabitants have had to evolve to
bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb
survivein many different niches and habitats. It discusses slow growers, rapid growers,
bb b bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb
and replication with scarce or abundant nutrients, under different atmospheric conditions,
