Answer:

The alternative is fastidious

Step-by-step explanation:

We can conclude that it is a fastidious microorganism since it grew only in BHI medium. If it had grown in every culture media, it would be not fastidious.

Fastidious bacteria need specific nutrients and vitamins for their multiplication and cannot grow well in generalist culture media.
