Question
Chapter 22.3, Problem 3CC
Summary Introduction
To predict: Whether the geographical distribution of fossils of early dinosaurs originated 200-250 million years ago would be broad or narrow.
Concept introduction:
Dinosaurs originated when there was a single large landmass in the Earth, called Pangea.

Students have asked these similar questions
In oxidase test with Pseudomonas aeruginosa, the cell cultures on the slide turn colorless to be
purple after tetra-methyl-p-phenylenediamine dihydrochloride (TMPD) is added. In the
reaction,
OTMPD is electron acceptor
O cytochrome c is the electron source
oxygen is terminal electron acceptor
OH2 produced is electron donor
You will use the following scenario to answer a group of 5 questions. You have isolated a
microbe from an environmental sample. The microbe has the ability to perform a new
metabolic reaction at a very low temperature, so you are excited that it could be a new
species.
You have shipped your samples off for sequencing and are now waiting for the results. Out of
curiosity (and maybe boredom...) you decide to test your culture for the Catalase and Oxidase
enzymes. Upon testing your sample for catalase, you don't see any bubbles; however, you do
see a color change to purple during the Oxidase test. What results can you conclude from
this?
O Catalase-/ Oxidase +
O Catalase +/ Oxidase +
Catalase + / Oxidase-
O Catalase / Oxidase -
O None of the above
Which of the following is not a strength of using 16S rRNA for phylogenetic analyses?
OA. It's cheap
OB. It's easy to do
C. It can be used to identify all the way down to the strain level
OD. Both A & B
OE. None of the above

- Why are molecular approaches important to the field of microbial taxonomy and phylogeny? Phylogenetic inferences based on molecular approaches provide the most robust analysis of microbial evolution currently available. It allows for the collection of a large and accurate dataset from many organisms Almost no fossil record was left by microbes when compared to plants and animals All of the above None of the abovearrow_forwardYou will use the following scenario to answer a group of 5 questions. You have isolated a microbe from an environmental sample. The microbe has the ability to perform a new metabolic reaction at a very low temperature, so you are excited that it could be a new species. You have already cultured it and gone through the plate isolation procedure. Before you ship your samples off for sequencing, you want to do one final check of the A260 ratios. You get back the following ratios: A260/280 ratio is 1.89; A260/230 is 2.01. These ratios are close enough to the accepted "pure" values so they could be considered "pure" and mostly (if not completely) free of contaminants from the PCR process.

The microbe has the ability to perform a new metabolic reaction at a very low temperature, so you are excited that it could be a new species. After receiving your sequence back from the sequencing lab, you feel that you have, in fact, discovered and isolated a new species. You ask a fellow labmate about how you should proceed, and he tells you the following is the proper way to introduce a new species for recognition: Cultures have to be sent to international culture collections. Then a paper must be published describing the new organism and providing a genus and species name. You recall learning about this in your Microbiology course in college. Is this information from your colleague true or false? True Falsearrow_forward
