Environmental microbiology... A. ...shows great promise, but has not yielded any significant discoveries yet. B. ...includes methods like metagenomics, which sequence and interpret all the DNA in an environmental sample. C. ...is important because only about 1% of all microbial species can be cultured in the laboratory.

Answer 1

Answer:

B. ...includes methods like metagenomics, which sequence and interpret all the DNA in an environmental sample.

Explanation:

Environmental microbiology is the science in charge of the study of microorganisms, small living things known as microbes. Study organisms that are only visible through a microscope, such as prokaryotic and simple eukaryotic organisms.

Metagenomics is the study of a collection of genetic material from a mixed community of organisms. Metagenomics usually refers to the study of microbial communities. It is generally used when studying microbial communities in which one microorganism cannot be separated from another.
