1. Do some research and try to identify one to three types of microbes cultured on your plates. Using any resources available to

you (i.e., a textbook or internet sources such as the CDC website), look up what bacteria are usually found on the areas from which you obtained your samples and the morphological characteristics of their colonies. Describe what morphological traits (i.e., size, shape, arrangement, color, margin, etc.) led to your hypothesized species identification. Be as specific as possible in the microbe type.

Answer:

I have identified <em>Escherichia coli </em>and<em> Bacillus sp.</em>

Explanation:

I obtained my sample from soil, in a park near my house. The common bacteria on soil are gram positive and gram negative.

I found rods, and some are gram positive and long. They others are gram negative and very small and short.

The color of the gram positive is a dark blue, almost purple, and they are big and abundant, they are almost in lines, so I think they are a species of <em>Bacillus.</em>

The gram negative bacteria are extremely small and they look hot pink. They are very probably enterobacteria, and the most common enterobacteria is <em>Escherichia coli</em>. They do not have a particular order of arrangement.

A student drew the diagram below to model the process of binary fission, which is a type of asexual reproduction.
Leno4ka [110]
The answer would be: <span>Binary fission involves a single parent cell, so there is only one set of genetic information that can be duplicated and passed on to the daughter cells.

If you see the picture, it is clear that there is only 1 parent involved in binary fission. This will exclude the first and third option. 
The genetic duplicated before splitting, so the cells should have an equal number of parent genetic material, not halves. This will exclude the second option.

A biologist examines a series of cells and counts 90 cells in interphase, 13 cells in prophase, 12 cells in metaphase, 3 cells i
EleoNora [17]
<span> Mitosis involves Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase. 

So you have 
13 + 12 + 3 + 2 = 30 cells in mitosis 
and 
90 + 30 = 120 cells in total 

Therefore your ratio of cells in mitosis to total cells is 30 / 120 = 1 / 4. That means mitosis should take up roughly 1/4 of the total cell cycle length. Since the completely cycle takes 24 hours, mitosis would then take (1/4)*24 = 6 hours</span>
