Answer:

TNTC

Explanation:

The correct option would be TNTC.

TNTC simply means Too Numerous To Count.  The term is usually reserved for bacterial culture plates with high bacterial loads, usually in the excess of 300 colonies. It is as opposed to TFTC (Too Few To Count) which is the term used when the colony count on a bacterial culture plate is less than 30.

When a bacterial culture plate is too numerous to count, it can either be eliminated from data analysis or the sample diluted to lower the bacterial load.
