MULTIPLE CHOICE ih
1. To survive, microbial inhabitants have learned to adapt by varying all of the following, except
ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih
a. growth rate. ih
b. growth in all atmospheric conditions. ih ih ih ih
c. growth at particular temperatures. ih ih ih
d. bacterial shape. ih
ANS: D ih
The chapter begins by discussing the way microbial inhabitants have had to evolve to survivein
ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih
many different niches and habitats. It discusses slow growers, rapid growers, and replication wi
ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih

2. Who was considered the father of protozoology and bacteriology?
ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih
a. Anton van Leeuwenhoek ih ih
b. Louis Pasteur ih
c. Carl Landsteiner ih
d. Michael Douglas ih
ANS: A ih
The book discusses Anton van Leeuwenhoek as the inventor of the microscope and the first perso
ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih
n to see the “beasties.” So they dubbed him the father of protozoology and bacteriology. The oth

3. Prokaryotic cells have which of the following structures in their cytoplasm?
ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih
a. Golgi apparatus ih
b. Ribosomes
c. Mitochondria
d. Endoplasmic reticulum ih
ANS: B ih
All the structures listed are found in eukaryotic cells, but ribosomes are the only ones thatapp
ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih
ly to prokaryotic cells.
ih ih ih
OBJ: Level 1: Recall ih ih ih
4. This form of DNA is commonly found in eukaryotic cells.
ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih
a. Linear
b. Circular
c. Plasmid
d. Colloid
.
.
, ANS: A ih
Circular and plasmid DNA are usually found only in bacteria, not eukaryotic cells. Colloid isa pr
ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih
operty of protein molecules and is not associated with nucleotides.

5. The nuclear membrane in prokaryotes is
ih ih ih ih ih
a. missing.
b. impenetrable.
c. a classic membrane.
ih ih
d. a lipid bilayer membrane.
ih ih ih
ANS: A ih
Prokaryotic cells do not have any membrane- ih ih ih ih ih ih
bound structures in the cytoplasm including astructured nucleus.

6. A microorganism that is a unicellular organism and lacks a nuclear membrane and truenuc
ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih
leus belongs to which classification?
ih ih ih ih
a. Fungi
b. Bacteria
c. Algae
d. Parasite
ANS: B ih
Fungi, algae, and parasites are unicellular eukaryotic organisms that contain a true nucleus. Ba
ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih
cteria are prokaryotic and do not contain a true nucleus or nuclear membrane.
ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih
OBJ: Level 1: Recall

7. In the laboratory, the clinical microbiologist is responsible for all the following, except
ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih
a. isolating microorganisms. ih
b. selecting treatment for patients. ih ih ih
c. identifying microorganisms. ih
d. analyzing bacteria that cause disease. ih ih ih ih
ANS: B ih
Clinical microbiologists do not select the treatment for patients. They provide the doctor withthe
ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih
name of the organism and the antibiotics that can kill the bacteria, but not in the final selection o
ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih
f treatment protocols.

8. What enables the microbiologist to select the correct media for primary culture and optimize th
ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih
e chance of isolating a pathogenic organism?
ih ih ih ih ih ih
a. Determining staining characteristics ih ih
b. Understanding the cell structure and biochemical pathways of an organism ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih ih
