Question

the spread plate method is used to: evenly distribute bacteria on an agar plate identify bacterial species by their shape differentiate bacteria based on oxygen requirements enhance bacterial motility question 4 (1 point) a colony - forming unit (cfu) represents: a fungal spore a virus infecting a bacterial cell multiple bacterial cells growing separately a single bacterial cell that formed a colony

Explanation:

The spread - plate method is a technique in microbiology to evenly distribute bacteria on an agar plate for counting or isolating colonies. A colony - forming unit (CFU) is defined as a single bacterial cell (or a group of cells that remain clumped together) that gives rise to a single colony on an agar plate.

Answer:

1. Evenly distribute bacteria on an agar plate
2. A single bacterial cell that formed a colony
