C. Agar provides a solid surface for bacterial growth.
Agar is a substance obtained from red algae which when added to a culture media, provides a solid surface for the growth of bacteria. When the agar is not added then the culture media remains as the broth and when the agar is added then the broth gets solidified.
Agar is added 1.5-2% in the broth to get solidified. The growth of the bacteria depends on the amount of agar added. Agar is used for the growth of bacteria because it has gel like properties which holds the nutrients evenly and the bacteria can use it accordingly.
A species is the smallest CLASSIFICATION level, then genus, family, order, class, phylum, and kingdom. Kingdoms are the most generalized and basic.
Because predators and prey must learn (or adapt) new ways of survival. Deer over time have learned to be much more sensitive to the surrounding environment, therefore, a deer's predator must also adapt/evolve and learn how to beat the deer at it's own game and catch it for food. Animals must evolve/adapt to any given environment. If humans lived in Antarctica for thousands of years, we would eventually be able to withstand the cold due to evolution. People who live in the Himalayas today actually breath normally at such high altitudes whereas if someone who lives at sea level went to where the Himalayan people lived, the result could potentiality be fatal because the body has not adapted/evolved at that point to withstand minimal oxygen.
