MULTIPLE CHOICE n




1. To survive, microbial inhabitants have learned to adapt by varying all of the following, except
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




a. growth rate. n




b. growth in all atmospheric conditions. n n n n




c. growth at particular temperatures. n n n




d. bacterial shape. n




ANSWER: D n




The chapter begins by discussing the way microbial inhabitants have had to evolve to survivein
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




many different niches and habitats. It discusses slow growers, rapid growers, and replication
n n n n n n n n n n n n n




with scarce or abundant nutrients, under different atmospheric conditions, temperature
n n n n n n n n n n




requirements, and cell structure. Bacterial shape as a form of evolution is not discussed.

2. Who was considered the father of protozoology and bacteriology?
n n n n n n n n




e
a. Anton van Leeuwenhoek n n




b. Louis Pasteur




id

c. Carl Landsteiner n




d. Michael Douglas n
gu
ANSWER: A n




The book discusses Anton van Leeuwenhoek as the inventor of the microscope and the first
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
nt
person to see the “beasties.” So they dubbed him the father of protozoology and bacteriology.The

3. Prokaryotic cells have which of the following structures in their cytoplasm? n n n n n n n n n n




a. Golgi apparatus
c



n




b. Ribosomes
ex




c. Mitochondria
d. Endoplasmic reticulum n




ANSWER: B n




All the structures listed are found in eukaryotic cells, but ribosomes are the only ones that
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




apply to prokaryotic cells.

4. This form of DNA is commonly found in eukaryotic cells.
n n n n n n n n n




a. Linear
b. Circular
c. Plasmid
d. Colloid



.
.

, ANSWER: A n




Circular and plasmid DNA are usually found only in bacteria, not eukaryotic cells. Colloid isa
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




property of protein molecules and is not associated with nucleotides.

5. The nuclear membrane in prokaryotes is
n n n n n




a. missing.
b. impenetrable.
c. a classic membrane.
n n




d. a lipid bilayer membrane.
n n n




ANSWER: A n




Prokaryotic cells do not have any membrane-bound structures in the cytoplasm including a
n n n n n n n n n n n n




structured nucleus.

6. A microorganism that is a unicellular organism and lacks a nuclear membrane and true
n n n n n n n n n n n n n




nucleus belongs to which classification?
n n n n n




e
a. Fungi
b. Bacteria




id
c. Algae
d. Parasite gu
ANSWER: B n




Fungi, algae, and parasites are unicellular eukaryotic organisms that contain a true nucleus.

a. isolating microorganisms. n




b. selecting treatment for patients.
c



n n n




c. identifying microorganisms.

n




d. analyzing bacteria that cause disease. n n n n




ANSWER: B n




Clinical microbiologists do not select the treatment for patients. They provide the doctor withthe
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




name of the organism and the antibiotics that can kill the bacteria, but not in the final selection of
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




treatment protocols.
