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’man
y’different’niches’and’habitats.’It’discusses’slow’growers,’rapid’growers,’and’replication’with’scarc
e’or’abundant’nutrients,’under’different’atmospheric’conditions,’temperature’requirements,’and’ce
ll’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’thre
e’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’t
o’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



.
.

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

OBJ:’ Level’1:’Recall

5. The’nuclear’membrane’in’prokaryotes’is
a. missing.
b. impenetrable.
c. a’classic’membrane.
d. a’lipid’bilayer’membrane.

ANS:’ A
Prokaryotic’cells’do’not’have’any’membrane-
bound’structures’in’the’cytoplasm’including’a’structured’nucleus.

OBJ:’ Level’1:’Recall

6. A’microorganism’that’is’a’unicellular’organism’and’lacks’a’nuclear’membrane’and’true’nucleu
s’belongs’to’which’classification?
a. Fungi
b. Bacteria
c. Algae
d. Parasite
ANS:’ B
Fungi,’algae,’and’parasites’are’unicellular’eukaryotic’organisms’that’contain’a’true’nucleus.’Bact
eria’are’prokaryotic’and’do’not’contain’a’true’nucleus’or’nuclear’membrane.
OBJ:’ Level’1:’Recall

7. In’the’laboratory,’the’clinical’microbiologist’is’responsible’for’all’the’following,’except
a. isolating’microorganisms.
b. selecting’treatment’for’patients.
c. identifying’microorganisms.
d. analyzing’bacteria’that’cause’disease.

ANS:’ B
Clinical’microbiologists’do’not’select’the’treatment’for’patients.’They’provide’the’doctor’with’the’na
me’of’the’organism’and’the’antibiotics’that’can’kill’the’bacteria,’but’not’in’the’final’selection’of’treat
ment’protocols.

OBJ:’ Level’2:’Recall

8. What’enables’the’microbiologist’to’select’the’correct’media’for’primary’culture’and’optimize’the’ch
ance’of’isolating’a’pathogenic’organism?
a. Determining’staining’characteristics
b. Understanding’the’cell’structure’and’biochemical’pathways’of’an’organism
c. Understanding’the’growth’requirements’of’potential’pathogens’at’specific’body’site
d. Knowing’the’differences’in’cell’walls’of’particular’bacteria
ANS:’ C
