Serial Dilutions are Generally Made

Question

Serial dilutions are generally made
A) when the appropriate viable count is unknown.
B) based on powers of 10, although other serial dilution factors are possible.
C) to reach a suitable dilution while minimizing error.
D) All of these answer choices apply.

Accepted Answer

Serial dilutions are made when the appropriate viable count is unknown, based on powers of 10, while other factors are also possible, and to reach a suitable dilution while minimizing error. Therefore, all answer choices apply.
