Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.

11. Protects the nucleic acid - gives virus its shape - contains the receptor sites for host cell in non - enveloped virus






12. They take over the synthesizing machinery to multiply






13. Gas gangrene - organism grows in tissues which have poor blood supply - toxin kills cells - necrosis






14. What chlamydiae cause reactive arthritis - conjunctivitis - nongonococcal urethritis - PID






15. Water movement with hypotonic solution or hypertonic solution






16. Which gram neg bacteria are spiral
