Why is the viable plate count technique considered to be an indirect measurement of cell density whereas the turbidimetry method is not a count at all?

the viable plate technique refers to the number of viable cells in the plate. it called indirect method as some of cells that contribute to cell density may not viable. meanwhile turbidimetric method only count the cell density of microbial cell population, not count the number of cell. it monitored the changes of population by measuring the opacity of growth medium which will become more opaque as the cell numbers increase.

Why is biochemical evidence of evolution considered to be indirect?
I do not know. I can look at shared biochemical pathways and see direct evidence of common ancestry with other organisms.
What is indirect planting?
commonly done with the trees... indirect planting is when the plants need to be transferred to its permanent place
What are the 9 indirect products of photosynthesis?
oxygen
Does the number of bacteria recorded by the standard plate count method accurately reflect the total bacterial count from the sample?
No. The standard plate count method is an indirect measurement of cell density of only viable bacterial cells. Optical density counting measure entire bacterial sample, the living as well as the dead bacterial cells.
What is the difference between a direct or an indirect pathway for bioaccumulation?
nothing
When is the indirect method appropriate and what are the benefits of using it?
Indirect measurement is a technique that uses proportions to find a measurement when direct measurement is not possible.

What is an indirect measure and why are such measures common in software metric works?
Indirect measurement is a measurement that is not obtained from a measurement tool; it is a technique that obtains a measurement when direct measurement is not possible. In software metrics work, indirect measures associate a measure to a feature of the object being measured. An example is basing quality on counting rejects. Indirect measures include functionality, quality, complexity, efficiency, reliability, and maintainability.
What is the name for the type of technique used for measuring attitudes?
Scaling is a technique used for measuring qualitative responses of respondents attitudes. Two types of scaling include direct measurement (Likert scale and semantic differential), and indirect measurement (projective techniques).
What is the technique of using similar figures and proportions to find a measure?
Number over x is equal to number over number; indirect measurement

What is the difference between direct and indirect measurement?
Direct is an exact measurement and indirect is an estimate.
What is an indirect technique used to influence public policy?
An indirect technique used to influence public policy is lobbying. It is an attempt to sway business and government leaders to create a law or conduct an activity.
