Question

Please select all of the statements which are true regarding isolated colonies.

- colony results from a single cell or a cluster of cells multiplying into a visible mass.
- cells within the colony are all the same species.
- Isolated colonies form on solid nutrient media.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

All three statements are true regarding isolated colonies.

A colony does indeed result from a single cell or cluster of cells multiplying into a visible mass.

Cells within the colony are genetically identical, so they are all the same species.

Isolated colonies form on solid nutrient media, as the media provides the nutrients required for the cells to grow and divide, and the solid structure of the media allows the colony to develop into a visible mass.
