Chapter 1: The Evolution of Microorganisms and Microbiology
1) Archaea are cellular organisms that have unique cell membrane .
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.
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.
Answer: domains
