1. Proper aseptic technique is crucial to ensuring growth of pure bacterial colonies. What is one experimental way you can test your practices to confirm that you are using proper aseptic technique?This could be done by having a control agar plate where sterile loop was used to streak the agar. If it grows bacterial colonies after some time, then aseptic technique was not successful. 2. In a laboratory setting, what are three ways you can properly sterilize culturing equipment? a. Dry hea...

Photoheterotroph - answer-A cell that uses an organic carbon source and obtains energy from light would be called a Lithoautotrophs - answer-Prokaryotes living in the ocean around volcanic vents use the volcanic gasses carbon dioxide (CO2) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) to fuel their metabolism. They are therefore Autotroph - answer-A microbe recovered from an environmental sample grows on a medium composed of agar and a mix of salts. The agar is not digested during incubation. The growth rate...
