Answer:

option a. streak, pour

Explanation:

The best method to isolate single bacterial colonies is the "streak-plating" method.

The "streak-plate" procedure is used to isolate pure cultures of bacteria or also colonies, from mixed populations by mechanical separation. Millions of cells form a colony, they grow in a cluster on an agar plate. With this method, a mixture of cells is spread over the surface of a agar-based nutrient in a petri dish, that makes that less bacterial cells are deposited at widely separated point on the surface and, after incubation, they develop into colonies.

On the other hand, the best method to count colonies is the pour plate method. It helps to enumerate bacterial cells in a mixed sample, often used to count the number of microorganisms in those samples, which are added to a molten agar medium before its solidification occur. The result is colonies uniformly distributed throughout the solid medium when the appropriate sample dilution is plated.

In a certain plant, yellow leaves are dominant and red leaves are recessive. A plant with genotype Yy and a plant with Yy are cr
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

One offspring would have red leaves.

Explanation:

Given

Yellow leaves are dominant and red leaves are recessive

Let us assume that the trait of Yellow color of a leaf be  represented by "Y"

and the trait of red color of a leaf be  represented by "y"

When two parent of genotype "Yy" are crossed with each other, the following offsprings are produced as shown in the punnet square below

Y y

Y YY Yy

y Yy yy

Total four offpsrings are produced out of which only one has red leave as red color is a recessive trait and it will appear only when both the allele in a cell are of red color.

Thus, one offspring would have red leaves.

what kind of atem celll can only develop into cells that are closely related to the original stem cell​
Yanka [14]

Multipotent cell is a kind of atem cell that can only develop into cells that are closely related to the original stem cell​.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Our body contains stem cells which help to regenerate or repair a particular cell or tissue during the time of need. There are different types of stem cells which provide as a life saver to the individuals to recreate the tampered organ or tissue.  

The multipotent cells unlike other stem cells have specific functions only. They can develop into cells that are closely related to the original stem cell. On stimuli a multipotent blood stem cell can give rice to related cells but cannot produce a neuron or other kind of cells. Hence multipotent cells are mainly used in transplantation.
