g Consider a culture medium such as mannitol salt agar (MSA) on which only gram-positive organisms such as Staphylococcus sp. Co

lonies can grow due to an elevated NaCl level. A yellow halo surrounds some colonies on the medium, indicating they are able to ferment the mannitol sugar, decreasing the pH and changing the color of a pH indicator chemical. This type of medium would be referred to as:

Answer:

Selective and differential medium

Explanation:

The type of medium described in the illustration would be referred to as a <u>selective and differential medium.</u>

There are basically 6 types of growth media for microbes based on the chemical composition of the medium;

  1. Enrich media: media that are enriched by substances such as blood, egg, etc. E.g. blood agar.
  2. Basal media: media that can be used to culture organisms without the addition of any substance. E.g nutrient agar.
  3. Selective media: media that selectively favors the growth of one organism or a group of organisms over the others due to its contents. E.g. Mannitol Salt Agar, McConkey agar, etc.
  4. Differential media: media that has the potential to change color with respect to a particular organism. E.g Mannitol salt agar.
  5. Transport media: media that are used to transport organisms due to the fact that they cannot be cultured where they are collected. E.g Stuart medium
  6. Storage media: media used to store organisms for future uses. E.g saline medium

<em>Mannitol salt agar has the capacity to favor the growth of a particular organism by indicating a color change. Hence, it is referred to as a selective and deferential medium.</em>

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Plant A listens to classical music for three hours each day

Explanation:

  • Music affect plant growth of plants through the vibrations that it creates to the sound waves.Classical music causes more pressure to the sound waves causing vigorous vibrations  which is picked up by the plants speeding up the protoplasmic movement in the cells.
  • The vibrations causes movement of  the plant cells which speed up growth of the plants by stimulating the plants to produce more nutrients enabling them to germinate having more leaves,greater in size and other improved characteristics which means the plant's genetic chromosomes were changed.  
  • Also in the soil  is able to produce good fungi and bacteria encouraging better root development due to healthy vines resulting to vigorous growth and better fruit.
  • Moreover the plants are able to receive special attention and care from the farmer thus enhancing faster growth.
