In the absence of autoclave, one can use pressure cooker to sterilize the nutrient agar. The most important thing is that the temperature must be high enough to kill off any microbe present. The pressure cooker can be used in place of autoclave at the temperature of 121 degree Celsius for fifteen minutes.
B. widely accepted as true. It can be supported by results that are repeatable. It is widely accepted as true, but not proven as a fact.

Answer:
4 ul Loading Buffer + 19.70 ul dH2O + 0.30 ul DNA Ladder
Load 12 ul on the gel.
Explanation:
DNA Ladder concentration = 1000 ug/ml
1000 ug DNA in 1 ml DNA Ladder solution → 150 ng DNA = 0.15 ug DNA in..... 0.00015 ml = 0.15 ul DNA Ladder solution
6x DNA Loading Buffer → it has to be diluted by an equal volume 6 times (1 ul LB + 1 ul distilled H2O)
An appropriate volume to load on an average agarose gel is 12 ul, so:
2 ul Loading Buffer + 9.85 ul dH2O + 0.15 ul DNA Ladder = 12 ul
But since 0.15 ul is a very small volume and mistakes could be made while measuring it, let's make double:
4 ul Loading Buffer + 19.70 ul dH2O + 0.30 ul DNA Ladder = 24 ul
And load half of that solution (12 ul) on the gel.
