UNE - MICROBIOLOGY FINAL REVIEW QUESTIONS
classifies, names, and identifies microorganisms based on genotypical and phenotypical
characteristics. - Answers - Taxonomy can be described as a system that:
classifies microogranisms, based on their cellular and colonial traits.
classifies microorganisms, based on their genetic makeup.
classifies, names, and identifies microorganisms based on genotypical and phenotypical
characteristics.
classifies microorganisms, based on their phenotypic makeup.
phenotypic - Answers - Colonial and microscopic morphologic properties, along with the
pigmentation of colonies, would belong to a microorganism group of __________
characteristics.
phenotypic
subspecies
genotypic
taxonomic
has been moved from one genus (Pseudomonas) to another genus (Burkholderia). -
Answers - The use of a double genus in a microorganism's label, such as Burkholderia
(Pseudomonas), indicates that the bacterium:
does not fit well in either group but has some characteristics of both groups.
has been moved from one genus (Pseudomonas) to another genus (Burkholderia).
is a genetic cross between the two groups
,has been moved from one genus (Burkholderia) to another genus (Pseudomonas).
