Erwin Chargaff did not have any DNA samples from thermoacidophilic bacteria such as those that thrive in the geothermal (hot) springs of Yellowstone Park. Such bacteria had not been isolated in 1951 when Chargaff reported his results. If he had obtained such a sample, what do you think its relative G-C content might have been? Why?

Nutrient Growth Medium

It is a culture medium or nutrient broth for all kinds of microorganisms to grow properly and create their colony. This matrix provides support to increase the population of microbes through the method of cell proliferation. It is regarded as the food material for those organisms. It is a type of in vitro mechanism, in which the development of life is processed outside the host body. It can be solid, semi-solid, or liquid in nature. Different kinds of cells develop in different types of media.
