Using the observations made and recorded from PL09 Unknown Pathogen, complete the results sections accordingly. Given the results from a MacConkey agar plate shown below, what is the shape of Culture A? Culture B? MacConkey Plates Culture A Culture B --No grow observed--

Step 1
First, we need to analyze the observations made from the MacConkey agar plates for both Culture A and Culture B. Observations: - Culture A: No growth observed - Culture B: No growth observed Show more…

In the diagrams of replica plates below, filled-in circles represent colonies. Empty circles represent cells that did not grow on the plate. a) One of the plates contains nutrient agar, and three of the plates contain nutrient agar with ampicillin and/or kanamycin. Which plate do you think is plain nutrient agar, and why do you think so? b) The results show that 1/3 (13/39) of the colonies are kanR. Which plate was used to draw this conclusion and what is in the agar of that plate? c) The results show that 1/13 (3/39) of the colonies are ampR kanR. Which plate was used to draw this conclusion and what is in the agar of that plate? d) What is in the agar of the fourth plate, and what is the phenotype of colonies that grow there? e) The phenotypes described in B) and D) are incomplete. List all four complete phenotypes and give the number of each among the 39 colonies.

In culturing Streptococci on a blood agar plate, you see an isolated colony that has darkened the agar and another isolated colony that has cleared the agar. What conclusions can be made? Select one or more: a. The colony that cleared the agar produces alpha-hemolysin. b. There are no non-hemolytic (gamma) bacteria present. c. There are beta-hemolytic and alpha-hemolytic bacteria growing on the plate. d. There are at least two different species of Streptococcus present.

You have a nutrient broth, an agar slant, and an agar plate with bacterial growth in or on each. If you wanted to evaluate the macroscopic appearance of the bacteria growing in or on the medium, which of the cultures would be the best choice? Multiple Choice Agar slant Broth Agar plate
