You will appreciate the abundance of soil microbes when you consider that the plate of them we generated was taken from a 10-5 dilution.    Just what IS a 10-5 dilution?  It is 1 in _____________________________________.    Were there any fungus-like forms on the plates we prepared from the soil extract?

Assuming you are working in a microbiology laboratory and a client sent you a sample for the following analyses: Identification of all microorganisms in the soil sample Enumeration of culturable bacteria in the sample Enumeration of both culturable and non-culturable bacteria in the sample For a to c, explain the following: Method of analyses to be used  Step by step report on how the analyses will be conducted
