Answer:

a) a space in an atom where an electron is most likely to be found

Explanation:

Atomic orbital is the mathematical function which describes wave-like behavior of the electrons present in the atom.

It is used to calculate probability of finding the electron of the atom in any  region around nucleus of the atom. Atomic orbital is the physical region or a three dimensional space where the probability of finding the electron is more than 90% which also means that the space where an electron is most likely to be found. They are boundless space and have definite energy.

Option A best describes atomic orbital.

Answer: The above statement is true

Explanation:

Mannitol salt agar is a medium which contain high concentration of salt,about 7.5%-10%. It is commonly used as a selective and differential growth medium.Because of its high concentration of salt,it inhibits growth if non halophiles(as they only grow best in media containing less tha 0.2M salts). If the bacteria can ferment mannitol,an acidic byproduct is formed which turns phenol red agar into yellow.So only those bacteria grow well which can ferment mannitol.
