About this resource
This quiz focuses on the human microbiome and basic microbiology concepts, making it most appropriate for grades 5-7. The questions assess students' understanding of fundamental biological principles including cell theory, microscopic organisms, and the symbiotic relationship between humans and bacteria. Students need to grasp that all living things are composed of cells, understand scale relationships between molecules and cells, and comprehend how microorganisms can be both beneficial and harmful to human health. The content requires knowledge of antibiotics' effects on bacterial populations, the concept of ecological balance within the microbiome, and emerging medical treatments like fecal transplants. Students must also understand the invisible nature of microbial life and how bacterial infections disrupt the body's natural bacterial ecosystem. Created by Bret Eubank, a Science teacher in the US who teaches grades 5 and 7. This quiz serves as an excellent formative assessment tool for students studying life science and human biology units. Teachers can use this as a pre-assessment to gauge prior knowledge before introducing microbiome concepts, or as review material following instruction on cells, bacteria, and human body systems. The quiz works effectively for homework assignments, allowing students to reinforce vocabulary and key concepts at home, or as a warm-up activity to activate prior knowledge at the beginning of related lessons. The true/false and multiple-choice format makes it ideal for quick comprehension checks during instruction. This assessment aligns with Next Generation Science Standards 5-LS1-1 (organisms have observable structures with specific functions) and MS-LS1-5 (environmental and genetic factors influence organism growth), supporting students' development of foundational concepts about living systems and human-microbe interactions.
