To get isolated colonies on a plate, only about 300 cells can be in the inoculum. what will happen if the cell density of the incolum significantly exceeds this number

Answer;

Not get any isolated colonies

Explanation;

-An isolated colony of bacteria is the progeny of a single bacterial cell. An isolated colony represents a pure source of an organism from which a pure culture can be started.The idea behind streaking for single bacterial colonies has to do with purity.

-When you have a single colony isolated from the rest of the colonies on the plate, it is a pure colony “grown up” from a single bacterium (that was isolated from the rest of the sample, streaked out on the plate).

unicellular organisms, like bacteria, are able to perform all life functions within one single cell. multicellular organisms need many different types of cells to carry out the same life processes. each of these special types of cells has a different structure that it perform a specific function.
