Answer:

B) The Petri dish provided nutrients for cells that landed on the surface of the media.

Explanation:

It is possible for microorganisms to land on the petri dish and proliferate under favourable environment in the petri dish. It is highly unlikely for a cells to be formed from the chemicals on the petri dish. For option C, it would require that cells are already present on the petri dish in the first place.

Answer:

B. That is the answer.

Explanation:

The Petri dish provided nutrients for cells that landed on the surface of the media. The fungal colonies that are shown growing on the Petri dish must have landed as spores on the surface of the dish while it was open. The nutrients and moisture would have allowed for these cultures to grow well.
