Prescott's Microbiology, 12e (Willey)
Chapter 1 The Evolution of Microorganisms and Microbiology

1) Archaea are cellular organisms that have unique cell membrane .


ACTUAL
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.

ACTUAL 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.
ACTUAL 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.
