, Chapter 1 The Evolution of Microorganisms and Microbiology
1) Archaea are cellular organisms that have unique cell membrane .
Answer: lipids
Topic: Archaea
Bloom's/Accessibility: 1. Remember / Keyboard Navigation
ASM Topic: Module 02 Cell Structure and Function
ASM Objective: 02.03 Bacteria and Archaea have specialized structures (e.g. flagella, endospores,
and pili) that often confer critical capabilities.
Learning Outcome: 01.01c Determine the type of microbe (e.g., bacterium, fungus, etc.) when given
a description of a newly discovered one
2) Extant microorganisms are organisms from the fossil record that are no longer present on Earth
today.
Answer: FALSE
Topic: Taxonomy of Microorganisms
Bloom's/Accessibility: 2. Understand / Keyboard Navigation
ASM Topic: Module 01 Evolution
ASM Objective: 01.05 The evolutionary relatedness of organisms is best reflected in phylogenetic
trees.
Learning Outcome: 01.02a Propose a timeline of the origin and history of microbial life and
integrate supporting evidence into it
3) All cellular organisms can be placed into one of three, which include the
Bacteria, Archaea, and the Eukarya.
Answer: domains
Topic: Taxonomy of Microorganisms
Bloom's/Accessibility: 2. Understand / Keyboard Navigation
ASM Topic: Module 01 Evolution
ASM Objective: 01.05 The evolutionary relatedness of organisms is best reflected in phylogenetic
trees.
Learning Outcome: 01.01b Explain Carl Woeses contributions in establishing the three-domain
system for classifying cellular life
4) Viruses are not generally studied by microbiologists because they are not classified as living
organisms.
Answer: FALSE
Topic: Taxonomy of Microorganisms
