Which of the following is NOT part of the growth medium for animal culture?

  • A.Starch
  • B.Serum
  • C.Carbon source
  • D.Inorganic salts

Answer: A

Correct answer: Starch

Animal cell media supply glucose as the carbon source, along with amino acids, vitamins, inorganic salts and serum. Starch is not among them: animal cells have no extracellular amylase and cannot use a polysaccharide, whereas plant and bacterial media may include one.
