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

2. Who was considered the father of protozoology and bacteriology?
x x x x x x x x
a. Anton van Leeuwenhoek x x
b. Louis Pasteur x
c. Carl Landsteiner x
d. Michael Douglas x
ANS: A x
The book discusses Anton van Leeuwenhoek as the inventor of the microscope and the first person t

3. Prokaryotic cells have which of the following structures in their cytoplasm?
x x x x x x x x x x
a. Golgi apparatus x
b. Ribosomes
c. Mitochondria
d. Endoplasmic reticulum x

x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
eus belongs to which classification?
x x x x
a. Fungi
b. Bacteria
c. Algae
d. Parasite
ANS: B x
Fungi, algae, and parasites are unicellular eukaryotic organisms that contain a true nucleus.Bac
x x x x x x x x x x x x x

x x x x x x x x x x x x
a. isolating microorganisms. x
b. selecting treatment for patients. x x x
c. identifying microorganisms. x
d. analyzing bacteria that cause disease. x x x x
ANS: B x
Clinical microbiologists do not select the treatment for patients. They provide the doctor withthe n
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
ame of the organism and the antibiotics that can kill the bacteria, but not in the final selection of tr
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x

8. What enables the microbiologist to select the correct media for primary culture and optimizethe
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
chance of isolating a pathogenic organism?
