A culture of E. coli is grown on minimal medium plates supplemented with either tryptophan, histidine, or lysine. The resulting colonies are replica plated to three minimal medium plates containing no supplements. The next day, colonies grow on the minimal medium replica plated from the histidine and lysine plates, but colonies do not grow on the tryptophan replica plate. This indicates that the E. coli strain is a

histidine auxotroph.

tryptophan auxotroph.

histidine and lysine auxotroph.

prototroph.

the oxygenated blood then leaves the lungs through pulmonary veins, which return it to the left heart, completing the pulmonary cycle. this blood then enters the left atrium, which pumps it through the mitral valve into the left ventricle. from the left ventricle, the blood passes through the aortic valve to the aorta.

deoxygenated blood leaves through the right ventricle through the pulmonary artery. from the right atrium, the blood is pumped through the tricuspid valve (or right atrioventricular valve), into the right ventricle.
