MULTIPLE CHOICE g




1. To survive, microbial inhabitants have learned to adapt by varying all of the following, except
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g


a. growth rate. g


b. growth in all atmospheric conditions. g g g g


c. growth at particular temperatures. g g g


d. bacterial shape. g




ANS: D g


The chapter begins by discussing the way microbial inhabitants have had to evolve to survive
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g


in many different niches and habitats. It discusses slow growers, rapid growers, and
g g g g g g g g g g g g g


replication with scarce or abundant nutrients, under different atmospheric conditions,
g g g g g g g g g g


temperature requirements, and cell structure. Bacterial shape as a form of evolution is not
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g


discussed.

2. Who was considered the father of protozoology and bacteriology?
g g g g g g g g


a. Anton van Leeuwenhoek g g


b. Louis Pasteur g


c. Carl Landsteiner g


d. Michael Douglas g




ANS: A g


The book discusses Anton van Leeuwenhoek as the inventor of the microscope and the first
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g


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?
g g g g g g g g g g


a. Golgi apparatus g


b. Ribosomes
c. Mitochondria
d. Endoplasmic reticulum g




ANS: B g


All the structures listed are found in eukaryotic cells, but ribosomes are the only ones that
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g


apply to prokaryotic cells.

OBJ: Level 1: Recall g g g




4. This form of DNA is commonly found in eukaryotic cells.
g g g g g g g g g


a. Linear
b. Circular
c. Plasmid
d. Colloid

, ANS: A g


Circular and plasmid DNA are usually found only in bacteria, not eukaryotic cells. Colloid is
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g


a property of protein molecules and is not associated with nucleotides.
g g g g g g g g g g g




OBJ: Level 1: Recall

5. The nuclear membrane in prokaryotes is
g g g g g


a. missing.
b. impenetrable.
c. a classic membrane.
g g


d. a lipid bilayer membrane.
g g g




ANS: A g


Prokaryotic cells do not have any membrane-bound structures in the cytoplasm including a
g g g g g g g g g g g g


structured nucleus.

6. A microorganism that is a unicellular organism and lacks a nuclear membrane and true
g g g g g g g g g g g g g


nucleus belongs to which classification?
g g g g g


a. Fungi
b. Bacteria
c. Algae
d. Parasite
ANS: B g


Fungi, algae, and parasites are unicellular eukaryotic organisms that contain a true nucleus.
g g g g g g g g g g g g


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
g g g g g g g g g g g g


a. isolating microorganisms. g


b. selecting treatment for patients. g g g


c. identifying microorganisms. g


d. analyzing bacteria that cause disease. g g g g




ANS: B g


Clinical microbiologists do not select the treatment for patients. They provide the doctor with
g g g g g g g g g g g g g


the name of the organism and the antibiotics that can kill the bacteria, but not in the final
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g


selection of treatment protocols.
