called: - ANSWER: Parasitology
Bacteria are considered to be: - ANSWER: Prokaryotic
Microorganisms that cause disease are called: - ANSWER: Pathogens
Bacteria have a two-part name. Which of the following shows the correct way of
showing the genus and species of bacteria? - ANSWER: Genus (capitalized and
italicized) and Species (lower case and italicized)

fission? - ANSWER: Chlamydia
Which term best represents the smallest infectious agent. These are obligate
intracellular organisms that reproduce by replication in the host? - ANSWER: Virus

Many bacteria have a mucilaginous envelope called a ________ which is located
outside the cell wall and functions as a protective shell. - ANSWER: Capsule
The flagella of bacteria function to: - ANSWER: Produce motility
Spore-forming bacteria under unfavorable conditions are called: - ANSWER:
Sporulating
Spore formation occurs in response to: - ANSWER: Unsuitable living conditions
The bacterial spore is called an endospore because: - ANSWER: It is formed within
