MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. To survive, microbial inhabitants have learned to adapt by varying all of the following, except
a. growth rate.
b. growth in all atmospheric conditions.
c. growth at particular temperatures.
d. bacterial shape.

ANSWER: D
The chapter begins by discussing the way microbial inhabitants have had to evolve to survive
N
in many different niches and habitats. It discusses slow growers, rapid growers, and
replication with scarce or abundant nutrients, under different atmospheric conditions,
temperature requirements, and cell structure. Bacterial shape as a form of evolution is not
U
discussed.

OBJ: Level 2: Interpretation
R
2. Who was considered the father of protozoology and bacteriology?
a. Anton van Leeuwenhoek
b. Louis Pasteur
c. Carl Landsteiner
SE
d. Michael Douglas

O
a. Golgi apparatus
b. Ribosomes
c. Mitochondria
