What is a colony in microbiology?
A colony is a group of identical bacteria (clones) which grow together into a visible cluster. Generally, a colony is grown on an nutrient agar plate (on a petri dish with bacteria food in it) such that it is large enough to see the bacteria. An additional type of colony is a "microcolony" which is a term used for a group of the same bacteria which grown in the dirt.
What is bacterial colony?
A group or cluster of bacteria derived from one common bacteria.
Bacteria lives in colonies so what is the circumference of the colony?
for 3.14 time it would be 20mm
Who first developed the process of colony purification on solid media?
Robert Koch, he used potato slices to grow individual bacteria colonies.
What are colonies of bacteria?
Bacterial colonies are defined as the assamblage of bacteria growing on a solid surface such as the surface of an agar culture medium, the assemblage often is directly visible, but also may be seen only microscopically.
What is a mass of bacteria that forms?
A mass of bacteria is a colony.
If bacteria in a colony are unable to perform conjugation how would this hurt the colony's chance for survival?
The colony would have less genetic variation. The Bacteria in the colony would be too genetically similar
The bacteria in colony are unable to perform transduction. how would this hurt the bacterial colony's chance for survival?
The bacteria would generally be more similar

Can colony morphology help to determine the identity of bacteria?
to know the amount of bacteria present
What does a 'colony' mean in science terms?
colony term is mainly used in biology... fungal colony, colony of bacteria etc.. basically a group name.
In regards to bacterial growth define colony?
A colony is a visible cluster of bacteria that has grown and divided on a solid agar surface. Each colony arises from a single bacterial cell and represents a genetically identical population of bacteria. Colonies can vary in size, color, shape, and other characteristics depending on the type of bacteria.
What is mean by cfu?
It is the concentration of bacteria in any solution.CFU stands for Colony Forming Units. Colony forming unit is a form of measuring bacteria grown on a streak plate.
What is the difference between a colony a CFU and a bacterial cell?
A colony is a visible cluster of identical bacteria on a solid growth medium, CFU (colony forming unit) is the unit used to estimate the number of viable bacteria in a sample, and a bacterial cell is the individual microorganism that makes up a colony.
If you want to grow a colony of bacteria what equipment do you use?
stuff
