What are microorganisms and why are they important?
Microorganisms and microscopic organisms. They are important to biodiversity because they act as decomposers in ecosystems that nutrient recycle and they also play an important role in the nitrogen cycle.
What nutrient does not help supply structure to bone?
Carbohydrates does not supply structure to bone.
Show the relationship of metabolic pathways for all nutrient metabolism along with major organs and cells of primary permanent sites of activity?

If an organism can grow on both a nutrient agar and a MacConkey Agar on which would you expect it to grow better?
The organism would be expected to grow better in nutrient agar. Nutrient agar is rich in nutrients and microorganisms grow well when there is availability of nutrients.
If you strongly suspect a nutrient agar slant culture is contaminated what method would you use to ascertain whether you are right or not?
You have to make subculture from this slant and after incubation you can observe how many types of microorganisms are present in the nutrient agar slant. If you have one colony shape so you have a pure nutrient agar slant but if you have more than one type of colonies so the nutrient agar slant is contaminated.
A nutrient that cannot be produced by the body in sufficient quantities for health is called?
essential nutrient
What is an antinutrient?
An antinutrient is a substance which interferes with the absorption or metabolism of a nutrient.
Is a microorganism a decomposer?
Microorganisms are critical to nutrient recycling in ecosystems as they act as decomposers.
Differentiate micro-nutrients and macro-nutrients?
A micro-nutrient is a nutrient that is necessary for proper function but you only need in small quantities. For example iodine or zinc. A macro-nutrient is something you need in mass quantities. For example, glucose or proteins.
What is the term that refers to the purposeful addition of microorganisms into a laboratory nutrient medium?
inoculation
