chapter 1: the evolution of microorganisms and microbiology

1) archaea are cellular organisms that have unique cell membrane .
ans>> lipids
feedback: archaea have unique membrane lipids composed of ether-linked isoprenoids,
which are distinct from the ester-linked fatty acids found in bacteria and eukaryotes.
these lipids provide stability in extreme environments, which is a hallmark of many
archaeal species.
topic: archaea
bloom's/accessibility: 1. remember / keyboard navigation asm topic: module 02 cell
structure and function
asm objective: 02.03 bacteria and archaea have specialized structures (e.g. flagella,
endospores, and pili) that often confer critical capabilities.
learning outcome: 01.01c determine the type of microbe (e.g., bacterium, fungus, etc.)
when given a description of a newly discovered one
2) extant microorganisms are organisms from the fossil record that are no longer
present on earth today.
ans>> false
feedback: "extant" means currently living or existing. therefore, extant microorganisms
are those that are still present today, not extinct. the statement incorrectly defines
"extant" as extinct.
