Experiment: A fungal culture was grown at 10°C, 25°C, and 40°C. Growth diameter was measured every day.Observation: Maximum growth occurred at 25°C; very little at 10°C and 40°C.Question: What can be concluded?
Correct answer: D. There is an optimal temperature for fungal growth.
- A. Fungi grow best at very high temperatures.
- B. Cold promotes fungal reproduction.
- C. Temperature has no impact on fungi.
- D. There is an optimal temperature for fungal growth.
Explanation
The correct answer is 'There is an optimal temperature for fungal growth' because the experiment showed that maximum growth occurred at 25°C, suggesting that this temperature is ideal for fungal growth. The other options are incorrect because they do not align with the observation from the experiment.
