Answer:

growth hormone deficiency and hypopituitarism

Explanation:

Pituitary gland is responsible for stimulating the release of all the essential hormones from our body. If pituitary hormones are not produced in sufficient amount then a complex problem known as growth hormone deficiency is caused. In absence of multiple pituitary hormones, hypopituitarism is caused.  

Some of the complications caused because of this deficiency are –  

a) Reduced size of body and organs  

b) Lower energy level and density of bone material  

c) High risk of cardiovascular problems

There are so many microbes in a single mL of culture, it is very difficult to perform one dilution to produce countable cells. M
Feliz [49]

Answer:

cumulative dilution = 0.000001

Explanation:

A serial dilution is a stepwise kind of dilution repeated a certain number of times, in which the concentration reduces exponentially each time.

The cumulative dilution is the final dilution gotten depending on the number of times dilution has been done and the dilution factor. The formula is given as:

Cumulative dilution = (F)ⁿ

where:

F = dilution factor = 0.1

n = number of serial dilutions = 6

∴ cumulative dilution = (0.1)⁶ = 0.000001

How did earth get its moon
Tems11 [23]
<span><span>
 The Moon was once part of the Earth and somehow separated from the Earth early in the history of the solar system. The present Pacific Ocean basin is the most popular site for the part of the Earth from which the Moon came.  Possible since the Moon's composition resembles that of the Earth's mantle and a rapidly spinning Earth could have cast off the Moon from its outer layers. However, the present-day Earth-Moon system should contain "fossil evidence" of this rapid spin and it does not.</span></span>

How is the movement of matter through the biosphere different from the flow of energy?
strojnjashka [21]
The flow of energy moves through living organisms via the food chain. A food chain is a diagram which shows how every living thing gets energy to live. Plants use the sun, nutrients in the soil and water to generate energy. Herbivores eat the plants to generate energy to survive. Carnivores eat the herbivores to generate energy. 
<span>Matter moves through the biosphere by being cycled through various organic and inorganic stages. They are neither created nor destroyed. The biosphere is known as a closed system so no elements can escape. They are continually being recycled. </span>
