The function to represent the number of cells present at the end of h hours if there are initially 4 of these cells is n= 4(2)ˣ

Given,

A particular type of cell doubles in number every hour.

So, to determine which function can be used to find the number of cells present at the end of h hours if there are initially 4 of these cells.

The number of cells denoted with n.

Therefore, the number of bacteria after every hour will form a geometric series.

<h3>What is Geometric Progression?</h3>

Geometric Progression or geometric Sum of G.P. is refer to as if each term is a multiple of the next term then this sequence.  

aₙ =arˣ

Where a is the first term which is 4.

And r is the common ratio r = 2.

Therefore,

The number of cells present at the end of h hours if there are initially 4 of these cells is,

n = arˣ

n = 4(2)ˣ

Hence, the function represents the number of cells present at the end of h hours if there are initially 4 of these cells is n = 4(2)ˣ.

In an ecosystem, energy from the Sun is transferred by way of _____.
Lorico [155]

Answer: food chains or webs

In an ecosystem, energy from the sun is transferred by the way of food chains or webs. A food chain is a linear sequence of organisms through which food and energy is passed as one organism eats the another. A food web is the interconnection or relation of food chains. In a food chain energy is distributed among the trophic levels. Plants are primary producers which traps energy from sun for photosynthesis and belong to first trophic level in the food chain. The energy of sun present in plants is transferred to subsequent higher trophic levels when plants are consumed by other organisms.

Answer: Adrenaline, also known as epinephrine, is a hormone and medication. Adrenaline is normally produced by both the adrenal glands and a small number of neurons in the medulla oblongata, where it acts as a neurotransmitter involved in regulating visceral functions (e.g., respiration).It plays an important role in the fight-or-flight response by increasing blood flow to muscles, output of the heart, pupil dilation response and blood sugar level. It does this by binding to alpha and beta receptors.[

DDT is an insecticide that was formerly used to control insects that would eat crops. It was banned from use in the 1970s.
Reil [10]
<h2>It contains toxins</h2><h2>It killed off bird populations.</h2><h2>It caused harm to human populations.</h2>

Explanation:

Let us understand the term DDT

DDT : Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane

  • This is a crystalline chemical compound
  • Basically used for protecting insects eating crops
  • It is colorless, odorless, tasteless
  • Initially used as pesticides

It killed off bird populations: Though it does not kill birds directly by consuming, it has indirectly damaged the egg by making the egg's shell too thin which gets broken easily.

It controlled diseases like malaria: Since this option talks about positive attribute of DDT, this option stands invalid. This chemical compound controls mosquitoes attacking the crop.

It caused harm to human populations: DDT causes vomiting, tremors or shakiness, and seizures

It contained toxins: It contains moderate toxins.
