Answer 2

• Peptone - 5 g/L
• Meat extract - 1 g/L
• Yeast extract - 2 g/L
• Sodium chloride - 5 g/L
• Agar - 15 g/L
• pH - 7.0 ± 0.2
• Storage temperature - 2-8°C
Nutrient broth does not contain agar,however if we add agar to it, it will become nutrient agar:)

Answer 3

Peptone- 0.5%
Beef Extract-0.3%
Agar-1.5%
pH adjusted to neutral at 25 C

When 2% of agar is added to nutrient broth then it become nutrient agar as it does not contain agar
