Here is a list showing how the bacteria grows:
Begin - 15
1st hour - 30
2nd hour - 60
3rd hour - 120
4th hour - 240
5th hour - 480
6th hour - 960
7th hour - 1,920
8th hour - 3,840
9th hour - 7,680
10th hour - 15,360
11th hour - 30,720
12th hour - 61,440
As you can see, the number of bacteria present is doubled at the end of each hour, as the question states. However, the question is not asking for the total number of bacteria at the end of the 12th hour; it is asking for the bacteria GROWN during the 12th hour.
Because there were 30,720 bacteria at the end of the 11th hour, and 61,440 at the end of the 12th, the number of bacteria that grew during that last hour must be 61,440 - 30,720 = 30,720 bacteria.
(P.S. the answer would be 61,440 if it was asking for the TOTAL number of bacteria at the end of the 12th hour)
Answer:
C
Explanation:
its c because it had cells that need them
It starts in the mouth. You start to chew in which the glands that produce saliva make it easier to send down the esophagus
When the sea floor spreads or collides it creates breakages which would be ocean ridges and deep sea trenches
Because you could easily contaminate the results of the urine if you don't follow exactly what the strict rules dictate This could be a very dangerous thing because if you contaminate the results, then other doctors would think that the patient has some disease that needs to be taken care of which in reality they do not. The patient could also have to go through things or waste money on things that they don't need to because there was something in the urine that wasn't supposed to be there which was added because they didn't follow the strict rules. Then the doctor who contaminated it could be sued for malpractice which is never a good thing.
