2- choose the correct option
You streak an agar plate, using an inoculum from a tube of a
broth culture of E. coli. After 1 day of incubation, you
see confluent growth covering the whole surface of the plate. Which
of the following errors would NOT
explain this result?
You put the plate in the fridge instead of the incubator |
||
You forgot to flame the loop between sections of the plate |
||
You picked additional culture up from the plate after streaking the first section of the plate |
||
You crossed over the previous streak too many times when streaking a new section of the plate |

1. How does true motility differ from Brownian movement? 2. What could happen if you would touch the bottom of the motility agar with your needle during inoculation? 3 Explain why the following steps are essential during subculturing: a) Flaming the loop or needle prior to and after each inoculation. b) Cooling the loop or needle prior to obtaining the microorganism c) Holding the test tube caps in the hand as opposed placing them on the bench top. d) Flaming...
Lab Report-Carbohydrates 1. Purpose 2. Special Media for Isolating Bacteria (Lab #12) a. Why are dyes such as phenol red, eosin or methylene blue added to the media? b. How does the bacterium change the media (i.e color of agar or colonies) after incubation? C. In this experiment, which media are selective, and which are differential? d. How did the results observe on the mannitol salt agar and EMB agar correlate to the Gram reaction of the bacteria? e. What...

LAB Genetic Engineering of Bacteria Problem Is it possible to transfer the allele for resistance to the antibiotic ampicillin into a bacterial cell? Objectives After completing this lab, the student will be able to: 1. Demonstrate micropipetting and sterile pipetting techniques for handling and transferring bacteria and plasmid DNA. 2. Maintain sterile conditions for culturing bacterial cells. 3. Inoculate bacteria into flasks, culture tubes, or agar plates. 4. Culture isolated individual colonies from an agar plate to form genetically identical...
please help me. answer only first page. thank you! p. If you accidentally forgot to inoculate your organism in an OF-glucose tube with oil, and only had one yellow “no oil” tube, what type of carbohydrate catabolism would describe that organism (fermenter, oxidative, neither)? Explain your answer. q. What are two other results from the OF-glucose tubes other than their type of carbohydrate catabolism? r. How can organisms that don't use starch grow on a starch agar plate? Carbohydrate Catabolism...
