Suppose you were interested in the effect of breastfeeding versus formula feeding on the composition of gut flora in newborns. A

s part of your experiment, stool samples from healthy babies in the study get plated on various agar media. You notice that greater numbers of colonies are recovered when samples are plated on blood agar compared to Luria Bertani (LB) agar. After some diligent subculturing, you isolate several bacterial species capable of slow growth on the blood but not on the LB agar. You correctly surmise that these organisms
Choose one:
A. are opportunistic blood pathogens.
B. should be classified as beta-hemolytic.
C. have extensive and complex nutritional requirements not met by LB agar.
D. grow because the blood agar suppresses the growth of faster-growing bacteria.
E. are Gram-positive and, thus, inhibited by the ingredients in LB agar.

Answer:

Option (C).

Explanation:

Luria Bertani is a rich nutritional medium generally used for the growth of bacteria. This media was created by Giuseppe Bertani.

Bacteria shows slow growth on blood but can grow grow easily in LB agar because they have complex and extensive requirement that cannot be met by LB agar. Blood agar is more enriched media and can grow the bacteria that are dependent upon the host organism.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

Many anti-evolutionists believe that since science doesn't have answers for all questions; scientific conclusions are not necess
Basile [38]

Answer:

In science, accepted theories do not represent absolute truths. A scientific theory is accepted when there is much evidence available that support its statements, but new lines of evidence can modify original presumptions  

Explanation:

A scientific theory is a plausible explanation of a particular phenomenon of the natural world, which has been many times tested and verified by using the scientific method. The accepted theories are progressively modified (or even overturned) as new lines of evidence emerge. In consequence, a scientific theory is composed of statements that we consider as truths regarding the available evidence, but we have no absolute certainty that such statements are true. The ability to self-correct is fundamental in science and it happens when we discover that the original statements of a scientific theory were wrong, thereby new lines of evidence allow us to correct the error and/or develop new scientific theories.
