Answer to Question 1

To take a culture, a scientist wipes a sterile swab across the surface of the animal's skin, inside the mouth, or another body area. The swab is rubbed onto a sterile growing medium inside a sterile petri dish, where the bacteria feed on nutrients. Next, the dish is placed in a temperature-controlled chamber to encourage bacterial growth. Within a few days, the bacteria grow and multiply, and the scientist is able to obtain enough bacteria to examine and identify under the microscope.

Answer to Question 2

They establish knowledge and performance standards and give meaningful credentials to those in the florist industry.

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
