To survive, microbial inhabitants have learned to adapt by varying all of the following, except a. growth rate. b. growth in all atmosphericvconditions. c. growth at particular temperatures. d. bacterial shape. ANS: D The chapter begins by discussing the way microbial inhabitants have had to evolve tovsurvivein m any different niches and habitats. It discusses slow growers, rapid growers, and replication with s carce or abundant nutrients, under different atmosphericvconditions, temperature requirements, and cell structure. Bacterial shape as a form of evolution is not discussed. OBJ: Level 2: Interpretation 2. Who was considered the father of protozoology and bacteriology? a. Anton van Leeuwenhoek b. Louis Pasteur c. Carl Landsteiner d. Michael Douglas ANS: A The book discussesvAnton van Leeuwenhoek as the inventor of the microscope and the first person to see the ―beasties.‖ So they dubbed him the father of protozoology and bacteriology.The other three individualsvwere not discussed. OBJ: Level 1: Recall 3. Prokaryotic cellsvhave which of the following structures in their cytoplasm? a. Golgi apparatus b. Ribosomes c. Mitochondria d. Endoplasmic reticulum ANS: B All the structuresvlisted are found in eukaryoticvcells, but ribosomes are the only ones thatappl y to prokaryotic cells. OBJ: Level 1: Recall 4. This form of DNA is commonly found in eukaryotic cells. a. Linear b. Circular c. Plasmid d. Colloid . . ANS: A Circular and plasmid DNA are usually found only in bacteria, not eukaryoticvcells. Colloid isa pro perty of protein molecules and is not associated with nucleotides. OBJ: Level 1: Recall 5. The nuclear membrane in prokaryotesvis a. missing. b. impenetrable. c. a classic membrane. d. a lipid bilayer membrane. ANS: A Prokaryotic cells do notvhave any membranebound structures in the cytoplasm including astructured nucleus. OBJ: Level 1: Recall 6. A microorganism that isva unicellular organism and lacks a nuclear membrane and truenucl eus belongs to which classification? a. Fungi b. Bacteria c. Algae d. Parasite ANS: B Fungi, algae,vand parasites are unicellular eukaryoticvorganismsvthat contain a true nucleus.Bac teria are prokaryotic and dovnot contain a true nucleusvor nuclear membrane. OBJ: Level 1: Recall 7. In the laboratory, the clinical microbiologist is responsible for all the following, except a. isolating microorganisms. b. selecting treatment for patients. c. identifying microorganisms. d. analyzing bacteria that cause disease. ANS: B Clinical microbiologists do not select the treatment for patients. They provide the doctor withthe n ame of the organism and the antibioticsvthat can kill the bacteria, but not in the final selection of tr eatment protocols. OBJ: Level 2: Recall 8. What enables the microbiologist to select the correct media for primary culture and optimizethe chance of isolating a pathogenic organism? a. Determining staining characteristics b. Understanding the cell structure and biochemical pathways of an organism c. Understanding the growth requirements of potential pathogens at specificvbody site d. Knowing the differences in cell walls of particular bacteria ANS: C
