Answer: 2.81 x 10∧14 baterias after 16 hours.
Explanation:
Hi, first we have to find how many 20 minute intervals are in 16 hours.
If 1 hour = 60 min, 16hours = 960 minutes (16 h x 60 min / 1 h)
If we divide the 960 minutes (16 hours) by 20 minutes we obtain 48. (960/48)
There are 48 twenty minutes intervals in 16 hours.
Now we have to apply the exponential growth formula:
P (t) = Po (1 +r) ∧t
Where:
P (t) = population at time t
P (0) = initial population (1)
r = growth rate (1)
t = time (48)
Replacing with the values given:
P (t) = 1 (1 + 1) ∧48= 2.81 x 10∧14
2.81 x 10∧14 baterias after 16 hours.
Answer:
When starfish were removed from their environment, the species richness of that area went down. This was because the starfish ate the mussels, and when the starfish were removed, the mussels became abundant and preyed on many of the other species.
This experiment showed that the starfish were a keystone species. A keystone species is a species that has a low biomass but a large impact on the community they are living in.
14: Operons allow prokaryotes to replicate DNA at the appropriate time.
Operons are specific regions of genes that are linked to a singular process. They ensure that the expression of these genes does not go unchecked and only occurs when necessary. Two key examples of this in humans are the lac operon and trp operon.
15. The central dogma of molecular biology is:
DNA to RNA to Proteins
Protein Synthesis occurs in 3 steps.
First our DNA is translated into RNA. Next the RNA is sequenced into Amino Acids by reading the corresponding 3-Base Codons. These Amino Acid sequences form various protein structures.
