MICROBIO 303 EXAM 2 REVIEW QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS, GRADED A+/ VERIFIED/ Microbial diversity = ? -3 examples? -relative metabolic diversity in bacteria and archaea vs in eukarya? Metabolic diversity; microbes are very different from one another because of metabolic diversity 1. Atrazine degradation -> some microbes can degrade Round-up which is a man-made herbicide (kills broad leaf weeds) that can cause problems in humans 2. Fe/Mn oxidation --> some microbes can grow on only iron;...
