Answer:

Radiocarbon dating

Explanation:

Radiocarbon dating is a technique for determining the age of carbon-based materials derived from live beings. By measuring the quantity of carbon-14 in a sample and comparing it to an internationally accepted reference standard, an age may be determined. Radiocarbon dating is based on the basic principle that all living organisms absorb carbon from the atmosphere and food sources around them, including a small quantity of naturally radioactive carbon-14. When a plant or animal dies, it stops absorbing carbon, but the radioactive carbon it has stored decays.

Which culturing method proivded the clearest results, the semisolid medium tube or the soft agar plate?
sattari [20]
The answer to this question would be soft agar plate.

The semisolid medium tube is mostly used for containing the specimen. It is hard to examine semisolid medium since the bacteria can grow in the upper part, middle part or even the lower part of the medium. In agar plate, the bacteria always growth in the upper part so it is easier to count the bacteria.
But semisolid can give some more information in determining whether the bacteria is anaerobic by looking for bubble inside the medium. Anaerobic bacteria can do fermentation that will produce air.
