2 In the table below, identify the carbon and nitrogen source(s) in each medium and then characterize each as "defined" or "undefined" ("complex"). If undefined, list the ingredient(s) that make it undefined. Finally, use your results to characterize each medium based on its ability to support growth of a wide range of organisms (poor, fair, good). Medium Description Nutrient Broth Brain-Heart Infusion Broth Glucose Salts Broth -Calf brains -beef extract -beef heart -distilled |- dextrose or deionized -distilled water or deionized water Carbon source(s) froteose peptone -Sodium chloride peptone Nitrogen source(s) Undefined Undefined Defined Defined/undefined Ingredient(s) making it "undefined" Ability to support a wide range of organisms (poor, fair, good) 8

Expert Solution
Step 1
Nutrient broth, Brain heart infusion broth, and Glucose salts broth are different kinds of growth mediums used in microbiological experiments. All these mediums have different compositions and therefore different abilities to allow microorganism growth.
