Answer:
21.81grams
Explanation:
According to the question, an agar medium requires the following ingredients: 21 grams (g) of
agar, 500 mg of dextrose, 3 dg of sodium, and 1 cg of potassium per 1,000 milliliters (mL) of distilled water.
Hence, the dry ingredient contain 21grams (g) of agar, 500milligrams (mg) of dextrose, 3decigrams (dg) of Sodium, and 1centigrams (cg) of pottasium.
We need to convert all units (not in grams (g)) to grams.
1grams = 1000milligrams
500 milligrams = 500/1000
= 0.500grams.
1grams = 10decigrams
3decigrams = 3/10
= 0.3grams
1grams = 100centigrams
1centigrams = 1/100
= 0.01 grams
Therefore, we have 21g, 0.500g, 0.3g, and 0.01g
The total dry weight of the ingredients will be:
21 + 0.500 + 0.3 + 0.01
= 21.81grams
Answer:
Why are cells small? because they can absorb nutrients much more efficiently. Because they are smaller they can efficiently absorb enough food. When a cell doubles in size the volume increases much more then the surface area, which is why large cells cannot receive enough food efficiently for their volume.
Hope this helped :)
A eukaryotic cell is much more complex than a prokaryotic cell. Eukaryotic cells usually make up more complex organisms and have organelles such as endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, mitochondria, a nucleus, and lysosomes. A prokaryotic cell only has circular chromosomes and is much smaller than a eukaryotic cell. Most single celled organisms are prokaryotes.
This process is called melting. When a solid melts, it turns into a liquid.
