Question

Your first task in the lab is to learn how to culture these cells and begin expanding the culture (increasing the # of cells) so that you may later conduct experiments on them.  You take two aliquots, each with an equal number of cells, and place them in two different culture vessels, one is a sealed airtight flask (culture 1) and the other is an open topped culture dish (culture 2). You provide both with the same growth media that contains their preferred fuel source, glucose.     

Are the cells in cultures 1 and 2 deriving all their energy in the same way?  (Yes or No)

Explain why or why not.  Be sure to name the specific processes by which each culture is deriving its energy.

culture 1
(sealed flask)
culture 2
(open dish)
