Answer:

Spores transported by the air.

Explanation:

Hello,

In biology, molds account for masses of mycelium, that is vegetative filaments or hyphaes and fruiting structures, produced by various fungi like Aspergillus, Penicillium, and Rhizopus. Such fungi, are associated with food spoilage and plant diseases, therefore, when they reproduce, they release spores which are spread to the air and subsequently transported to suitable sources of substrate allowing them to grow again. In such a way, since the jar was uncovered, spores transported by the air were allowed to get into the soup and grow there.

Best regards.

An object with a height of 0.3 meter is placed at a distance of 0.4 meter from a concave spherical mirror. An image with a heigh
Sophie [7]

We can use the magnification equation for this problem.

Magnification equation:

<em>hi/h0 = di/d0</em>

Where in <em>hi </em>: image size, <em>h0</em> : object size, <em>di </em>: image distance, <em>d0 </em>: object distance from mirror

So plugging in the given variables we will have the corresponding equation

0.1 m / 0.3 m = <em>di / </em>0.4 m

<em>di</em> = 0.1333333m

The generated image of the object is located 0.13 meters or 13 cm away from the mirror

Explain why there might be a change in the density of a forged product as compared to that of the cast blank.
kkurt [141]

Answer:

Forged parts are often tougher than cast parts. This can be determined by performing tensile tests on various areas on the parts. Additionally, the microstructures of forged and cast parts can be used to determine if a part was forged or cast. The microstructure of a cast part will have a more uniform grain structure.

Answer: 19.25 gallons

Explanation: 1 ml = 0.0011 quart

Given:  4 quarts = 1 gallon

Thus if 1 ml is equal to 0.0011 quart

70000 ml  is equal to =\frac{0.0011}{1}\times 70000=77quart

Now if 4 quarts is equal to 1 gallon.

77 quarts is is equal to=\frac{1}{4}\times 77=19.25gallons
