1. B
Ratio: Indigenous microflora usually live in a person which provides protection against
colonization by pathogenic microorganisms.

2. D
Ratio: Many microbes are involved in the decomposition of dead organisms and the waste
products of living organisms. Collectively, these microbes are referred to as decomposers or
saprophytes.

3. A
Ratio: Microbiology can be defined as the study of microbes. Micro means very small that’s why
microbes can only be observed with the use of microscopes.

4. D
Ratio: Acellular microbes are also known as infectious particles/agents which includes viruses
and prions. They are organic (carbon-based) but non-living and absence of cells. They were
also unable to reproduce or pass their DNA to daughter cells or offspring. Lastly, they need host
for survivability

5. A
Ratio: Cellular microbes are also known as microorganisms. These includes bacteria, archaea,
protozoa, algae, and some fungi. They can be unicellular which means having a single cell or
multicellular which is composed of billions of cells.

6. B
Ratio: Opportunistic pathogens do not cause disease under ordinary conditions, but have the
potential to cause disease should the opportunity present itself.

7. A
Ratio: An infectious disease results when a pathogen colonizes the body and subsequently
causes disease. Examples are MRSA infection and Gas gangrene.

8. B
Ratio: A microbial intoxication results when a person ingests a toxin (poisonous substance) that
has been produced by a microbe.

9. D
Ratio: Archaea and Cyanobacteria are among the first microorganisms on earth.

10. A
Ratio: Microbes are said to be ubiquitous, meaning they are virtually everywhere.

LESSON WRAP-UP (5 minutes)

 AL Activity: CAT: 3-2-1 This strategy provides a structure for students to record their own
comprehension and summarize their learning. It also gives the teacher an opportunity to
identify areas that need re-teaching, and areas of student interest.
Instructions:
1. As an exit ticket at the end of the class period
2. After the lesson, have each student record three things he or she learned from
the lesson.
3. Next, have them record two things that they found interesting and that they’d like
to learn more about.
4. Then, have students record one question they still have about the material.
5. Review the students’ responses. You can use this information to help
develop future lessons and determine if some of the material needs to be
taught again.
Three things you learned: One question you still have:
1. I learned about the definition of
1. None.
microbiology, pathogen,
nonpathogen, and opportunistic
pathogen.
2. I learned how to differentiate
cellular microbes from acellular
microbes.

3. Difference between infectious

disease and microbial intoxication.

Two things that you’d like to learn

more about:
1. Pathogens and specific diseases
they cause

2. Different careers in microbiology
