In this experiment, 4 different organisms (A, B, C and D) were streaked on two nutrient agar plates and incubated at different oxygen conditions. One plate was incubated aerobically (on the counter top) and 1 plate incubated anaerobically in a sealed Gas-pak jar. Read the results below and answer questions.

100%

A. Classify the organisms (A-D) based on their oxygen requirements. Name one location where you are most likely to encounter these organisms (1 location/organism).

B. Organism C could not grow in the presence of oxygen.  Explain the molecular reason behind this observation (What affect did oxygen have on C that caused it not grow)?  

C. Your friend repeats the above experiment in Question1 and observes growth of all 4 organisms on both plates.  Provide an explanation for her results. (You may assume that your results are correct, since you have repeated the experiment several times and gotten the same results).

In this experiment, 4 different organisms (A, B, C and D) were
streaked on two nutrient agar plates and incubated at
different oxygen conditions. One plate was incubated
aerobically (on the counter top) and 1 plate incubated
anaerobically in a sealed Gas-pak jar. Read the results below
