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