Answer:

7 hours

Explanation:

Given, generation time of the species is 1 hour which means that after every 1 hour the cells double in number.

At 0 time = 100 cells/ml

After 1 hours = 200 cells/ml

After 2 hours = 400 cells/ml

After 3 hours = 800 cells/ml

After 4 hours = 1600 cells/ml

After 5 hours = 3200 cells/ml

After 6 hours = 6400 cells/ml

After 7 hours = 12800 cells/ml

Thus, after 7 hours the culture will contain approximately 10000 cells/ml.

During exercise, energy demand in the muscle increases. Which other body system directly provides for this demand
beks73 [17]
The body system that directly provides for this demand is the circulatory system. When you exercise, the circulatory and muscle system cooperate, in order to meet the increased needs for strength and energy. The circulatory system involves the network which delivers blood to every part of your body. This flowing of blood ensures that the tissues are oxygenated and rich in necessary nutrients. During exercise, more blood flows to and from your muscles, in order to deliver the necessary amounts of oxygen to complete the aerobic respiration.

liberstina [14]
Dead mustard plants disintegrate into the soil And the worms in the soil see it and are like woah man let’s fricking rave! So these worms rave until the riff of dawn and the air gets so dense it just turns into nitrogen. The rave vibes were so lit that the nitrogen had this gold ora to it. The worms gathered it all and in a way, molded it into a seedling. They were like “ we gonna name it marigold cuz we had a pretty merry good time”. So yea science is wild isn’t it?
