When streaking a plate, the idea is to dilute the bacteria sufficiently so that by the 3^rd phase of the plate you have isolated colonies; a plate contains sufficient surface area to allow isolated colonies to appear, whereas a slant does not. _ Enrichment media contains substances that various bacteria require for growth; blood agar is considered enrichment media as it detects hemolysins. Solution the answers are true, streaking provides more surface area for the microbes and we can isolate individual colonies but a slant cannot. In a slant we can store the bacterias for long term. Enrichment media is enriched with specific nutrients to support the growth of specific microorganism and inhibits other microbes.Blood agar is a enriched midia.
