differed between my group’s nutrient agar and MAC agar plates. In courgette‚ there was moderate growth in nutrient agar while it was heavy in Mac agar. In beef broth‚ there was slight growth in nutrient agar while it was negative in MAC agar. In fresh basil‚ growth was heavy in nutrient agar while it was heavy in MAC agar. Where cottage cheese was the ingredient‚ both plates had heavy growth. For walnut‚ growth was slight in nutrient agar while it was negative in MAC agar. Generally‚ the slight difference

Diffusion in agar cubes Introduction: All cells are dependent on a processes called diffusion‚ which is the movement of a substance from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Cells need to obtain certain essential substances‚ like oxygen‚ for their survival. The rate of diffusion is said to be dependent upon the various factors: Size of molecules that have to diffuse‚ concentration gradient‚ the distance across which diffusion occurs‚ number of pores/openings‚ surface

growth of bacteria on Agar plates Hypothesis: That the bacteria will grow in colonies throughout the agar plates except for the one with the anti-biotic loop because some will fight off the bacteria. Method: (Method taken from prac sheet) Plate 1: Use the swab to cover your entire agar plate in your bacteria. You only need one swab of bacteria but be careful to cover the entire surface of your agar in a layer of bacteria. Carefully place an Antibiotic Mastring on top of the agar (use tweezers) in the

Biology Assessment: Influenza Structure: Viruses are non-cellular obligate intracellular parasites‚ requiring a living host cell in order to reproduce. A developed viral particle (virion) lacks the metabolic machinery of cells‚ containing just a single type of nucleic acid (DNA or RNA) encased in a protein coat or capsid. Viruses can be distinguished by their structure and by the nature of their genetic material (single or double stranded DNA or RNA). Viruses that affect humans are more difficult

unknown organisms provided by the instructor in a nutrient broth. It is only known that the two organisms are from vomit; one is gram-positive and the other is gram-negative. It is necessary to first separate the two organisms by inoculating a nutrient agar plate using the streak-plate method. The initial streak-plate procedure was performed and placed in the incubator at 37◦C for 24-48 hours. Upon observing the growth on this plate‚ it is fairly obvious that one of the organisms is Serratia marcescens

1.0 BASIC FEATURES OF SARVA SHIKSHA ABHIYAN Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan is an effort to universalise elementary education by community-ownership of the school system. It is a response to the demand for quality basic education all over the country. The SSA programme is also an attempt to provide an opportunity for improving human capabilities to all children‚ through provision of community-owned quality education in a mission mode. 1.1 WHAT IS SARVA SHIKSHA ABHIYAN A programme with a clear time frame

Question: How does the size of the cell affect its efficiency in exchanging substances through several ways‚ like diffusion? Aim: To plan and carry out an investigation to show the relationship between volume/Cm3‚ surface area‚ and diffusion using agar cubes measured in time/s; and to demonstrate‚ using diffusion‚ why the size of cells is limited‚ keeping the room temperature and pressure constant. Hypothesis: I expect to find that when the surface area to volume of a cell reaches a certain level

17th‚ October 2010 Margarita SA: VOL RATIO AND AGAR BLOCKS Conclusion: For this experiment the agar jelly had to be cut in to five different block sizes‚ after that has been done we had to add all five blocks in to the test tube with the acid and time to see how long it would take for the colour to change from a pinky purple to clear. From this experiment I learnt that the bigger the size of the jelly is the

Agar.io is a addictive multiplayer action packed game developed by Matheus Valadares. In the game you are a cell and your goal is to gain as much mass as you can by consuming both pellets and smaller cells without being swallowed by bigger enemy cells. You can either play a deathmatch where everyone is the enemy‚ in a party with your friends or as a colored team that must consume other colors accept for your own. While playing the game‚ there is no set score‚ players have to respawn when all of

The Role of Agarase in Agar-Degrading Bacteria Abstract Agar-Degrading (agarolytic) Bacteria is physiological class of bacteria capable of utilising agar as a sole carbon source. This ability is made available by the use of agarases - enzymes which break down agarose into oligosaccharides. This physiological class branches through genii‚ regardless of Gram Stain status or morphology. Through a review of scientific literature we can find identification methods‚ optimum conditions and the
