Can be multiple answers. A. There are fewer cells around the compound X disk compared to a control plate without compound X.
B. There are more cells around the compound X disk compared to a control plate without compound X
C. The liquid culture of cells which were to be added to the plate with compound X grew more rapidly than normal.
D. Compound X caused the filter paper disk to turn red.
