When a substance is added to solid medium which inhibits growth of unwanted bacteria but permits the growth of wanted bacteria the medium is known as?
selective medium
Why is motility medium semi-solid?
Because it does not inhibit bacteria form "swimming" through the medium.
What are advantages of a solid?
The culture on solid media (agar) surface aids microbiologist in identifying microorganism because individual species often from colonies of characteristic size and appearance. When mixed population has been plated properly, it sometimes is possible to identify the desired colony based on its overall appearance and use it to obtain a pure culture. Whereas in liquid broth we get mixed culture and can not identify the seprate colony of any microbial species in that mixed culture.
What are the two states of a colloid?
The two states of a colloid are either a gas or liquid and a solid. The dispersion medium is either the liquid or gas that is mixed with the dispersed medium, which are usually solid particles.
What is the benefits of a solid agar medium compare to broth medium?
broth medium contains nutrients and other compliments which is required for the growth .

What is the difference between liquid and solid medium?
In wave motion, the media are said to be liquid and solid according to the states of media themselves, that is, if a medium is in solid state then the medium is said to be solid medium and if the medium is in liquid state, then the medium is said to be liquid medium.
What are examples of a medium?
Solid, liquid and gas.
What type of semisolid medium is used to grow bacteria?
Agar is a semi solid medium used to grow bacteria.
What is a liquid or solid that is suitable for growing cells?
a medium
What forms can a medium take?
Solid Liquid and Gas

How does a smear preparation of cells from a liquid medium differ from preparation of cells from a solid medium?
In liquid medium one starts by placing one or two loopfuls of the liquid medium directly on the slide. From solid media such as nutrient agar. One starts by placing one or two loopfuls of water on the slide and then using an inoculation loop to disperse the organisms in the water. Bacteria growing on solkid media tend to cling to each other and mus be dispensed suficiently by dilutiion in water.
