Answer:

61 for Plate 1 ,

59 for Plate 2

Explanation:

Given that the original stock has a concentration of  6 * 10^6 infectious virus particles /mL

and it was diluted by 1:10000

New concentration = ( 6 * 10^6 ) / 10000 = 600 infectious virus particles/ mL

Also given that the virologist plates 100 mL of each sample

therefore; 0.1 mL has a count of 60.

The experimental results that he is most likely to observe in the duplicate plates will be ;

61 for (Plate 1) ,

yKpoI14uk [10]
In this case, the protozoa will be in category B - animal-like protist.

Animals consume other living organisms to obtain energy. Archaea and bacteria are a high level classification of different kinds of microorganisms that include many different subtypes. So these are not appropriate answers as they are not specific enough. Plant-like protists can photosynthesize which these protozoans cannot. Fungus does have similarities with animals in that it consumes living tissue to survive, however animal-like protist is the best fit for this questions.
