I want to test the ability of students to read a passage and answer questions about it. Could you please come up with a good question for the passage "In the laboratory, bacteria are usually grown using solid or liquid media. Solid growth media, such as agar plates, are used to isolate pure cultures of a bacterial strain. However, liquid growth media are used when measurement of growth or large volumes of cells are required. Growth in stirred liquid media occurs as an even cell suspension, making the cultures easy to divide and transfer, although isolating single bacteria from liquid media is difficult. The use of selective media (media with specific nutrients added or deficient, or with antibiotics added) can help identify specific organisms."?
Ans: Why would it be hard to tell what kind of bacteria it is if you use the liquid method?

Ans: What was specifically doubled early on in reference to the Jewish people?
