Heavy seeded plates means a agar plate having inoculum in large quantity it is generally done by spreading method with low dilution or concentrated inoculum and is done for the need of large no. of colonies generally in industrial purpose.

Sparsely or low seeded plate are those which contain very diluted spreaded inoculum or little streaking inoculum it is generally done for examine and study purpose for understanding the physiology and morphology of microbe.

Are protists smaller than bacteria?

Some protists are larger than bacteria, while others may be smaller. Protists are typically unicellular organisms but can also form colonies or be multicellular, whereas bacteria are unicellular prokaryotic organisms. The size of protists and bacteria can vary greatly depending on the specific species.


What would be found in the clear area that would not be found in the blue area of a starch agar plate after the additon of iodine?

Another organism on the starch agar plate breaks down the starch into smaller sugars, and the starch intolerant organism in turn competes for the smaller sugars. As a result, you will see colonies of the starch user pop up first, and then smaller satellite colonies of the dependant organism will form around them.


Why is a needle used to isolate individual colonies from a spread plate or streak plate?

A needle is used to isolate individual colonies because it allows for precise picking and transfer of single colonies. This method helps avoid contamination and ensures the purity of the isolated colony for further analysis.


Why are olfactory bulbs on humans smaller than on sheep?

Humans rely more on other senses, like vision, for survival compared to sheep, which heavily rely on their sense of smell for identifying predators and finding food. Thus, sheep have larger olfactory bulbs to process a greater amount of olfactory information.

Why are colonies on a heavily seeded plate smaller than those that appear on a sparsely seeded plate?

Microbe colonies develop in larger sizes on sparsely seeded plates due to the abundance of plate surface they have for growth. Heavily seeded plates produce smaller colonies as they are forced to compete with one another for basic survival.

How did the environment shape the development of North America?

Geography played a major role in the development of agriculture in the colonies. For instance over in the northern colonies (new england) the soil was harsher and led to the development of diverse agriculture and generally smaller farms. Which allowed urban centers and towns to develop. In the South the soil was richer and allowed the planting of tobacco in large plantations, with large plantations people were spread far apart and did not allow for urbanization

Why did fewer towns develop in the southern colonies compared to the New England colonies?

Fewer towns developed in the southern colonies compared to the New England colonies because the southern region had large plantations that were spread further apart, leading to a more rural and decentralized settlement pattern. The economy in the southern colonies was based on cash crops like tobacco and rice, which required large tracts of land and fewer workers, whereas the New England colonies had smaller farms and a more diversified economy that supported more compact town development.
