2. The pink bacteria were not able to get enough energy from the nutrient broth in test tube D to live.
3. The white bacteria outcompeted the pink bacteria for the nutrients in the broth in test tube D.
4. The pink bacteria are sediment growers in nutrient broth and the micropipette could not reach them.
