Answer 1

1. The application of molecular biology into the microbial ecology allow us to incorporate our predominantly quantitative data into an overall frame work that provides understanding of microbial world. Hence option "d" is correct.

2. The Berget's manual is the main reference work outlining a system of classification for bacteria and archaeological. Hence option "d" is correct.

3. Benefit of studying microbial ecology along with general ecology is both the discipline enhance understanding if scientific data. Hence option "b" is correct
