In the Standard Plate Count method it is assumed that the bacterial cells are diluted to an end point where a single cell divides giving rise to a visible colony on a plate, although this assumption is not always correct.

Cells tend to have a relatively small and uniform size. why aren’t cells larger?

What happens during interphase? (1)the nucleus grows to its full size. (2)the cell grows to its full size. (3)the nucleus divides into two nuclei. (4)the cell divides into two cells.

Which of the following matches the organisms described with the correct domain? a. archaea--multicellular, eukaryotic organisms that do not have cell walls b. eukarya--single-celled and multicellular organisms, with a defined nucleus and a variety of nutritional sources c. bacteria--unicellular, eukaryotic organisms with cell walls that do not contain peptidoglycan d. bacteria--unicellular, eukaryotic organisms that always lack cell walls
