Explanation / Answer

Answer:

Could you use yeast cells instead of bacteria as a host for replication of your plasmid DNA? Why?

What do you expect to be the difference between the undiluted plate and the 1:10 dilution plate of bacteria after overnight incubation?

The growth in the undiluted plate will be more as compared to the 1:10 dilution plate. This is because the initial cell number will be higher in undiluted plate and when cells divide and grow exponentially the population of undiluted plate will be higher after overnight incubation.

How would you prepare a 1:100 dilution of bacteria?

How would you prepare a 1:1000 dilution?
