3. Most colonies on streak plates grow from isolated colony-forming units (CFUS). On rare occasions, however, a colony can be a mixture of two different organisms. a. If you mistakenly start a culture from a colony containing two different organisms, you (will or will not?) be able to correctly identify of the bacteria using biochemical tests), because . Note that we will do a lot of different tests on our bacteria later this quarter... See Section 4 of your lab manual for "Selective Media" and Chapter 5 for "Differential Media". We aren't going to worry about the crazy chemistry, but we are going to be inoculating a lot of plates & tubes in the future!. b. If you found the colony to mistakenly be a mixture of organisms, you would separate the organisms by (what technique?). 4. It is important to always properly label and incubate your plates. a. Three key pieces of information that you always want to include in your plate label are and b. Students should always label the or lid-side?) of the plate because (agar-side c. When placing their plates into an incubator, students should always place the plates side-up?) because (agar-side-up or lid- d. For BIOL&260 labs, the temperature that each student incubates their plate at is (25°C, 30°C, 37°C, or "it depends"?). If your answer is "it depends," please explain why:
