MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. To Survive, Microbial Inhabitants Have Learned To Adapt By Varying All Of The Following, Except
a. Growth Rate.
b. Growth In All Atmospheric Conditions.
c. Growth At Particular Temperatures.
d. Bacterial Shape.
ANS: D
The Chapter Begins By Discussing The Way Microbial Inhabitants Have Had To Evolve To
Survive In Many Different Niches And Habitats. It Discusses Slow Growers, Rapid
Growers, And Replication With Scarce Or Abundant Nutrients, Under Different
Atmospheric Conditions, 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 Discusses Anton 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 Individuals Were Not Discussed.
OBJ: Level 1: Recall
3. Prokaryotic Cells Have Which Of The Following Structures In Their Cytoplasm?
a. Golgi Apparatus
b. Ribosomes
c. Mitochondria
d. Endoplasmic Reticulum
ANS: B
All The Structures Listed Are Found In Eukaryotic Cells, But Ribosomes Are The Only Ones
That Apply 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
