If in baseball you're up at bat and you get walked with bases loaded and a run is forced in how can you get an RBI when a walk doesn't count as an 'at bat'?

It still counts as a plate appearance, and as a result of your plate appearance (bases loaded walk), a run scored. Therefore you are credited with an RBI. A sacrifice fly doesn't count as an at-bat either, but RBIs are credited. Double-plays are counted as at-bats but they disqualify RBIs. "At-bats" have absolutely nothing to do with RBIs.

Do both the spread-plate and pour-plate method in a experiment produce similar bacterial counts or are they vastly different?

The spread-plate and pour-plate methods generally produce similar bacterial counts if performed correctly. However, the spread-plate method may result in slightly lower counts due to potential bacterial loss during spreading, while the pour-plate method can sometimes lead to higher counts due to bacterial trapping within the agar. Overall, the difference in counts between the two methods is usually not significant.

What is considered a plate appearance in baseball?

A completed turn in the batter's box. This could result in a hi,walk, sacrifice fly. sacrifice bunt, hit by pitch, or catchers interference. The at bat is not a plate appearance if the 3rd out is recorded before the batter has done one of the above. The batter would lead off the next inning with a 0-0 count.

A sacrifice bunt in baseball doesn't seem to count against on base percentage is a sacrifice bunt therefore not considered to be a plate appearance?

It is in fact the only stat that may not be included as a plate appearance. While unique it is also confusing because it is up to the discretion of the scorekeepers as to whether or not the batter was bunting in an attempt to make it on base, or if they were indeed bunting to progress other players. If the scorekeeper rules that the player was in fact trying to progress other players with a disregard for whether or not they themselves make first base, then indeed it does not count as a plate appearance (unlike a sacrifice fly which regardless of the intention will always count as a plate appearance, but not an at bat.)

Why direct microscopy and plate count give not a same counts?

Direct microscopy counts viable and non-viable cells, whereas plate count only counts viable cells that are able to grow and form colonies on agar plates. Additionally, plate count may underestimate the total number of viable cells due to factors like the inability of certain cell types to grow under specific conditions or the formation of aggregated cells that do not separate easily on the agar plate.
