The structure of a typical tooth and periodontal tissues; four kinds of teeth and the number and position of each; the mode of replacement of deciduous teeth by permanent teeth; and functions of mastication. Introduction: The mouth is otherwise called as buccal cavity or oral cavity. The tongue is bulky and muscular, which moves easily and quickly. It is one of the sense organs. It skillfully controls the food between the teeth without being bitten. The salivary glands in the mouth secrete saliva. The teeth are jointly called as dentition. They make the food simple to swallow by the mastication process in which the food is broken into smaller pieces.

In order to establish the expiration date of perishable food, growth curve data must be collected. Once the microbial load is so high that it poses a hazard to human health, the food item is no longer considered safe (expired). Generally a load of x50,000 bacteria/gram is considered unsafe. Your task is to determine the microbial growth curves for MicroYo, a new brand of yogurt. The growth is determined by sampling the yogurt and growing the bacterial isolates in broth culture which is then serially diluted by a total of x10,000 and inoculated onto standard petri plates of nutrient agar. The following colony counts are measured: Time (days) MicroYo colony count# 1 1 4 1 12 2 16 20 4 7 What day should you recommend expiring the yogurt (the last possible date before the microbial load is unsafe). 12 4 20 16
