The intended use of Nutrient Agar with MUG is for detecting an enumerating E. Coli in water. This lab wasn't looking specifically and only for e.coli. It was looking for other types of coliforms as well. this is my best guess

What reaction would you predict from an organism growing in litmus milk that has the following results in other media?

Assuming that you are asking about other media such as milk agar, PR lactose broth, purple lactose broth, and PR glucose broth, the answer you are looking for is as follows: A. A clear zone around the growth on a milk agar plate: indicates hydrolysis of casein, so should be clarification of medium present B. A/- in PR lactose broth: indicates lactose fermentation with acid and no gas produced, so should be pink litmus with acid clots and reduction of litmus in lower portion of medium C. A/G in purple lactose broth: indicates lactose fermentation with acid and gas produced, so should have pink litmus on top, acid clot, reduction of litmus, and fissures in the clot D. K in PR glucose broth: indicates peptone degradation with alkaline end products, so litmus should be blue
