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

2. Who was considered the father of protozoology and bacteriology?
yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi
a. Anton van Leeuwenhoek yi yi
b. Louis Pasteur yi
c. Carl Landsteiner yi
d. Michael Douglas yi
ANS: A yi
The book discusses Anton van Leeuwenhoek as the inventor of the microscope and the first
yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi
person to see the ―beasties.‖ So they dubbed him the father of protozoology and bacteriology.

3. Prokaryotic cells have which of the following structures in their cytoplasm? yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi
a. Golgi apparatus yi
b. Ribosomes
c. Mitochondria
d. Endoplasmic reticulum yi
ANS: B yi
All the structures listed are found in eukaryotic cells, but ribosomes are the only ones that
yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi
apply to prokaryotic cells.
yi yi yi yi
OBJ: Level 1: Recall yi yi yi
4. This form of DNA is commonly found in eukaryotic cells.
yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi
a. Linear
b. Circular
c. Plasmid
d. Colloid

yi yi yi yi
, ANS: A yi
Circular and plasmid DNA are usually found only in bacteria, not eukaryotic cells. Colloid is a
yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi
property of protein molecules and is not associated with nucleotides.

5. The nuclear membrane in prokaryotes is
yi yi yi yi yi
a. missing.
b. impenetrable.
c. a classic membrane.
yi yi
d. a lipid bilayer membrane.
yi yi yi
ANS: A yi
Prokaryotic cells do not have any membrane-bound structures in the cytoplasm including a
yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi
structured nucleus.
yi yi
OBJ: Level 1: Recall
yi yi yi
6. A microorganism that is a unicellular organism and lacks a nuclear membrane and true
yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi
nucleus belongs to which classification?
yi yi yi yi yi
a. Fungi
b. Bacteria
c. Algae
d. Parasite
ANS: B yi
Fungi, algae, and parasites are unicellular eukaryotic organisms that contain a true nucleus.
yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi
Bacteria are prokaryotic and do not contain a true nucleus or nuclear membrane.

7. In the laboratory, the clinical microbiologist is responsible for all the following, except
yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi
a. isolating microorganisms. yi
b. selecting treatment for patients. yi yi yi
c. identifying microorganisms. yi
d. analyzing bacteria that cause disease. yi yi yi yi
ANS: B yi
Clinical microbiologists do not select the treatment for patients. They provide the doctor with
yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi
the name of the organism and the antibiotics that can kill the bacteria, but not in the final
yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi
selection of treatment protocols.

OBJ: Level 2: Recall
yi yi yi
8. What enables the microbiologist to select the correct media for primary culture and optimize
yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi
the chance of isolating a pathogenic organism?
yi yi yi yi yi yi yi
a. Determining staining characteristics yi yi
b. Understanding the cell structure and biochemical pathways of an organism yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi
c. Understanding the growth requirements of potential pathogens at specific body site yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi
