Q10) What genera produce endospores?
- What culture would have more endospores? A bacterium in broth culture for 24 hour or 72 hours?
- How specifically does a flagella stain let us see the flagella? (they’re too thin to be seen with 1000X magnification)
xplain the four stages of the growth curve for a microorganism. What is the generation time? Which aspect of the growth curve is used to calculate the generation time and why? How is the generation time calculated and why does it make sense that E.coli and M.tuberculosis have such drastically different generation times?
