- The following image shows part of counting chamber you used to estimate cell viability for yeast cells. If the dilution factor you used was 1:200, and the total sample volume was 5 ml, then calculate the cell viability, the cell density and the total cell.arrow_forwardYour labmate tells you that you need to go back to the original colony each time you streak a new quadrant on your streak plate to achieve the goal of the lab. Is your labmate correct (does this achieve the goal)? Why or why not?
