Document Summary

Questions are organized by section number and have an (f), (c), or (a) at the beginning to designate the modified bloom categories used in the test item files. Prokaryotes have: no true nucleus, no membranous organelles, a large, circular chromosome, all of the above. This is not the best, most complete answer. This is not the best, most complete answer: incorrect. This is not the best, most complete answer: correct. Peptidoglycan is a component of the cell wall of: bacteria, archaea, both, neither. Bacteria and archaea are two different domains of prokaryotes. All of the organisms in domain bacteria have peptidoglycan in their cell walls while none in domain archaea do: incorrect. Archaea do not use peptidoglycan in their cell walls: incorrect. All of the organisms in domain bacteria have peptidoglycan in their cell walls. (f)3. Classification of prokaryotes may use many kinds of traits.

17. What is citizen science? a) Science projects in which scientists study citizen b) Science project in which citizens are trained to become scientists in the future c) Science projects in which the public participates by collecting data, analyzing data, or participating as subjects d) Science projects in which scientists study the nature of being a good citizen

18. When considering the evolutionary tree of life and the three domains of life, which statement best describes what likely happened over the course of millions of years of evolution? Choose one:

A. Bacterial and eukaryotic cells are more closely related to each other than to archaeans, as evidenced by the fact that bacteria and eukaryotes do not inhabit the most extreme environments.
B. Although their cell structures are very different, archaean and eukaryotic cells are more closely related to each other than to bacteria, as evidenced by the fact that Bacteria was the first domain to split from the shared ancestor of Archaea and Eukarya.

C. Bacteria and archaeans are more closely related to each other than to eukaryotes, as evidenced by their cell structures. Bacteria and archaeans are prokaryotic, while all eukaryotic cells contain mitochondria and other membrane-bound organelles.
D. The three domains of life are equally divergent from one another, so no two domains are more closely related to each other. This is supported by the evolutionary tree of life because three branches extend from one node millions of years ago.

1. Many bacteria exist in biofilms in nature. Based on the information in the passage and in the chapter, is it possible to create a pure culture of a species that normally exists in biofilms?

Select the best answer.

A) Yes, because many species can have planktonic growth or live within a biofilm, and a biofilm can contain a single species.

B) Yes, because bacteria are most commonly found in sessile forms and a biofilm contains sessile bacteria.

C) No, because a pure culture by definition must grow in medium and would not be able to form a biofilm.

D) No, because biofilms always contain many species of bacteria and a pure culture does not.

2. The introductory passage described a consortium consisting of ANME and a sulfur oxidizing bacteria. Which of the following would be important considerations in choosing the best technique to determine the number of living cells in a culture of the consortium?

Select the best answer.

A) Some fluorescent stains react differently based upon whether a cell has an intact cell membrane.

B) Phylogenetic stains can distinguish between species of Bacteria and species of Archaea.

C) DAPI can be used to stain DNA.

D) Cells present in low concentrations can be counted using microscopic cell counts, but they must be concentrated first.

E) Small cells are more difficult to see when doing microscopic cell counts.
