Binary Fission = When bacteria reproduces by dividing
Culture Nutrient Medium = Substance that contains nutrients for the bacteria
Mutation = When DNA inside the cell accidentally changes when the cell divides
Sterilise = When you kill off all of the microbes on the thing/equipment
Inoculate = Treat with a vaccine to produce immunity against a disease
Contaminate = When there are things, that we don’t want, inside something
REQUIRED PRACTICAL:
1. Sterilise wire loop > put in alcohol then put in flame until it glows red 2. Open bacteria near flame > sterilise bottle neck then put in flame 3. Put sterile wire loop in bacteria 4. Hold Petri-dish near flame and open it > Open it for as little time as possible 5. Create a “zig-zag” pattern on agar jelly > smear not poke 6. Place antibacterial paper on agar jelly 7. Close Petri-dish then tape it 8. Incubate at the ideal temperature > not human body temperature
