Active Lecture Questions Chapter 10 Classification of Microorganisms Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Bergey’s Manual of Systematic Bacteriology differs from Bergey’s Manual of Determinative Bacteriology in that the former a. groups bacteria into species. b. groups bacteria according to phylogenetic relationships. c. groups bacteria according to pathogenic properties. d. groups bacteria into 19 species. e. all of the above Bacillus and Lactobacillus are not in the same order. This indicates that which one of the following is not sufficient to assign an organism to a taxon? a. b. c. d. e. biochemical characteristics amino acid sequencing phage typing serology morphological characteristics Which of the following is used to classify organisms into the Kingdom Fungi? a. b. c. d. e. ability to photosynthesize; possess a cell wall unicellular; possess cell wall; prokaryotic unicellular; lacking cell wall; eukaryotic absorptive; possess cell wall; eukaryotic ingestive; lacking cell wall; multicellular; prokaryotic Which of the following is not true about scientific nomenclature? a. b. c. d. Each name is specific. Names vary with geographical location. The names are standardized. Each name consists of a genus and specific epithet. e. It was first designed by Linnaeus. You could identify an unknown bacterium by all of the following except a. hybridizing a DNA probe from a known bacterium with the unknown’s DNA. b. making a fatty acid profile of the unknown. c. specific antiserum agglutinating the unknown. d. ribosomal RNA sequencing. e. percentage of guanine + cytosine. The wall-less mycoplasmas are considered to be related to gram-positive bacteria. Which of the following would provide the most compelling evidence for this? a. They share common rRNA sequences. b. Some gram-positive bacteria and some mycoplasmas produce catalase. c. Both groups are prokaryotic. d. Some gram-positive bacteria and some mycoplasmas have coccus-shaped cells. e. Both groups contain human pathogens. Into which group would you place a multicellular organism that has a mouth and lives inside the human liver? a. b. c. d. e. Animalia Fungi Plantae Firmicutes (gram-positive bacteria) Proteobacteria (gram-negative bacteria) Into which group would you place a photosynthetic organism that lacks a nucleus and has a thin peptidoglycan wall surrounded by an outer membrane? a. b. c. d. e.
