1. The field of study in which medicine and microbiology intersect is
known as _________ medical microbiology
2. Which of the following is a characteristic of members of the
resident microbiota? Resident microbiota can compete with and
limit growth of harmful bacteria.
3. Which body sites normally have large numbers of resident
microbiota? Vagina, skin, throat, large intestine, nose
4. A microorganism that is most often harmless but may occasionally
cause infection and disease if the host defenses are compromised is
referred to as an ______ pathogen opportunistic
5. which of the following are genera of gram-positive cocci
frequently found as resident microbiota in humans staphylococcus,
enterococcus, streptococcus
6. Which of the following infections are frequently caused by
Staphylococcus species as well as Streptococcus species?
Pneumonia, endocarditis, abscess, urinary tract infection.
7. Before attempting to identify an unknown bacterial species, the
organism must be isolated in a pure culture.
, 8. Which of the following is the Quickest way to isolate bacteria from
a mixed culture? Streak Plating
9. What type of medium is enriched with a complex organic
substance, allowing for the growth of fastidious organisms from
the human body? Blood agar
10. The Gram stain is an example of a test that can be used to
determine the _________ characteristics of a bacterium
morphological
11. Match the following morphological characteristics with the
correct genus streptococcus = gram positive cocci in chains
staphylococcus = gram positive cocci in clusters
diplococcus = gram positive in pairs.
12. Identification of a bacterial species cannot be made on
microscopic morphology alone because many microorganisms
have a similar microscopic morphology
13. the most reliable source of information regarding the tets that
can be used to identify a particular bacterial isolate and the
expected results is ________ manual Bergey's
