This is the day to day problem of a medical microbiology laboratory: the "tube containing a liquid nutrient medium" in the real world could, for example, represent blood culture bottles (aerobic or anaerobic). The basic process is as follows: a loop is first flamed to ensure sterility and then used to transfer a small portion of bacterial-laden liquid media to the agar medium by streaking it across the surface of a sterile petri dish. The dish is then covered, inverted, and placed in an appropriate incubator. When colonies begin to form on the surface of the agar plate, individual colonies can be taken up using the sterile loop for analysis or further propagation. The assumption is that a single colony represents growth from a single bacterium.

How does carbon dating tell us how old a bone is ?
Anestetic [448]

carbon dating shows how old a bone is by measuring the amount of carbon 12, and carbon 14 that the bone contains. and because carbon 14 is not replaced by exchange with the atmosphere the ratio of c12:c14 (the ratio of carbon 12 to carbon 14) tells how old the bone is by comparing the amount of carbon 14 to the amount of carbon 12. carbon 14 has a half life of 5,700 years, while carbon 12 is stable and does not radioactively decay at all.
