2. You use tubes to test aerotolerance of bacteria. From your samples you have 3 results: A.Bacteria growing on the surface. B. Bacteria growing throughout the tube, the agar shows cracks.C. Bacteria growing about 5 mm below the surface. Please interpret each bacterial result. (Give thebacteria an oxygen classification, explain what classification means and interpret the cracks in theagar.)3. Please explain how the use of an Eosin Methylene Blue Agar plate can help determine the typeof fermenters that bacteria are. Please explain thoroughly.

Sally Monella found 344 bacterial colonies on one of her plates. She had prepared this plate after a serial dilution of a culture of Yersinia pestis. She had pipetted 1 ml sample of diluted Yersinia pestis from a tube with the overall dilution factor of 106 into a plate and covered it with agar. She used this plate to calculate the concentration in cells/ml of a bacterial culture. a) How many organisms were in the original culture? b) Were her results valid? Why or why not?
