Q1. If you add 25 g of food in 225 ml water, after mixing well, 1 ml is taken and added to 10 ml of water then a dilution of 1:9 (ratio 1 to 9) is made then 5 ml is added to 50 ml of water. Finally, 1 ml from this last dilution is plated. After incubation, 143 colonies are counted. What is the total count per g of the original sample? Show your calculations in details Answer:

Modes of Nutrition

It is a biological process of providing or obtaining food that is necessary for growth and health. It includes many physiological processes - absorption, ingestion, assimilation, catabolism, excretion, etc. In biology, the science that deals with nutrition's physiological and chemical processes are called "nutritional science."
