Answer #1

The answer for the above question is false because if you have a cup of water and you also have bacteria of a particular concentration , even if a cup of water is taken the concentration of the remaining water with bacteria remains the same that is the concentration of the bacteria remains the same that is 10^-4.

    You have a tube with 5ml of infected blood that has a concentration of bacteria at 10(8) cells per ml. You wish to make a serial dilution of the blood so when you take 100 ul of the last dilution and spread it on a Petri dish you will have between 30-300 colonies growing on the plate. You have plenty of empty 1.5 ml microfuge tubes, a bottle of sterile water, a p1000 pipettor (100-1000ul) and tips, for the dilutions,...
