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

ANSWER: A p
The book discusses Anton van Leeuwenhoek as the inventor of the microscope and the first
