MULTIPLE CHOICE l
1. To survive, microbial inhabitants have learned to adapt by varying all of the following, except
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l
a. growth rate. l
b. growth in all atmospheric2conditions. l l l
c. growth at particular temperatures. l l l
d. bacterial shape. l
ANS: D l
The chapter begins by discussing the way microbial inhabitants have had to evolve to survivein
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l
many different niches and habitats. It discusses slow growers, rapid growers, and replication wi th
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l
scarce or abundant nutrients, under different atmospheric conditions, temperature requireme nts,
l l l l l l l l l l l
and cell structure. Bacterial shape as a form of evolution is not discussed.
l l l l l l l l l l l l l
OBJ: Level 2: Interpretation l l l
2. Who was considered the father of protozoology and bacteriology?
l l l l l l l l
a. Anton van Leeuwenhoek l l
b. Louis Pasteur l
c. Carl Landsteiner l
d. Michael Douglas l
ANS: A l
The book discusses Anton van Leeuwenhoek as the inventor of the microscope and the first perso n to
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l
see the ―beasties.‖ So they dubbed him the father of protozoology and bacteriology.The ot her
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l
three individuals were not discussed.
l l l l l
OBJ: Level 1: Recall l l l
3. Prokaryotic cells have which of the following structures in their cytoplasm? l l l l l l l l l l
a. Golgi apparatus l
b. Ribosomes
c. Mitochondria
d. Endoplasmic reticulum l
ANS: B l
All the structures listed are found in eukaryotic cells, but ribosomes are the only ones thatap ply
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l
toprokaryoticcells.
l l l
OBJ: Level 1: Recall l l l
4. This form of DNA2is2commonly found in eukaryotic cells.
l l l l l l l
a. Linear
b. Circular
c. Plasmid
d. Colloid
.
.
, ANS: A l
Circular and plasmid DNA are usually found only in bacteria, not2eukaryotic cells. Colloid isa pr
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l
operty of protein molecules and is not2associated with nucleotides.
l l l l l l l l l
OBJ: Level 1: Recall l l l
5. The nuclear membrane in prokaryotes is
l l l l l
a. missing.
b. impenetrable.
c. a classic membrane. l l
d. a lipid bilayer membrane. l l l
ANS: A l
Prokaryotic cells do not have any membrane- l l l l l l
bound structures in the cytoplasm including astructured nucleus.
l l l l l l l
OBJ: Level 1: Recall l l l
6. A microorganism that is a unicellular organism and lacks a nuclear membrane and truenu
l l l l l l l l l l l l l
cleus belongs to which classification?
l l l l l
a. Fungi
b. Bacteria
c. Algae
d. Parasite
ANS: B l
Fungi, algae, and parasites are unicellular eukaryotic organisms that contain a true nucleus.B acteria
l l l l l l l l l l l l l
are prokaryotic and do not contain a true nucleus or nuclear membrane.
l l l l l l l l l l l l
OBJ: Level 1: Recall l l l
7. In l the laboratory,2the clinical microbiologist is responsible for all the following, except
l l l l l l l l l l
a. isolating microorganisms. l
b. selecting treatment for patients. l l l
c. identifying microorganisms. l
d. analyzing bacteria that cause disease. l l l l
ANS: B l
Clinical microbiologists do not select the treatment for patients. They provide the doctor withthe
l l l l l l l l l l l l l
lname of the organism and the antibiotics that can kill the bacteria, but not in the final selection of
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l
treatment protocols.

OBJ: Level 2: Recall l l l
8. What enables2the microbiologist to select the correct media for primary culture and optimizeth e
l l l l l l l l l l l l l

b. Understanding the cell structure and biochemical pathways of an organism l l l l l l l l l
c. Understanding the growth requirements of potential pathogens at specific body site l l l l l l l l l l
