A lawn culture is a type of culturing used in to test the sensitivity of a microorganism. One should spread the active culture evenly across the surface either by covering the surface of the agar with the culture then pouring off the access or by taking a culturing rod and spreading the culture evenly across the surface of the agar, sort of like spreading peanut butter over a piece of toast.

How would you define pure culture sterile culture and contamination in the culture and isolation of bacteria?
A pure culture contains only one bacteria and no other. A sterile culture has only one bacteria in it and is usually used for transport. Contamination is something that doesn't belong. It can even be a small bit of plastic or wire. It is the opposite of a pure culture. The whole idea when working with isolating bacteria is to figure out which bacteria (or microbe) is causing an infection or disease in a patient. Your job is to help to figure this out so that the proper treatment can be started as soon as possible.
