Organic compounds do NOT contain which of the following?

Biology

<span>In the 19th century is was assumed that organic compounds could only be produced by plants and animals. These compounds all had carbon and hydrogen in common. Some organic compounds also include O, N, the halogens, S and a few other elements.

Now we know that organic compounds can be synthesized in the laboratory. Simple compounds of carbon and hydrogen include the alkanes and alkenes, for instance, as well as aromatics like benzene. But oxygen is a common element in organic compounds like alcohols, aldehydes, ketones and ethers.

So the bottom line is that all organic compounds contain C and H and some contain O as well, but O is not required to be an organic compound.

========= Follow up ==========

Why are these people saying "yes". It's obvious that there are many organic compounds that don't contain oxygen</span>

Determine whether the statement is true or false. Suppose P(t) represents the population of bacteria at time t and suppose P'(t)
Lorico [155]

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

If the population follows a logistic growth curve, the graph of P vs t will look like the diagram below.

The rate of growth (P') increases slowly at first, then increases rapidly from 2 to 4, and then slows down, but always P > 0.

The graph has an inflection point at (3, 1000). That's the point at which the rate of growth starts slowing down.

When t < 3, P'' > 0.  

When t = 3, P'' = 0.

When t > 3, P'' < 0, because the rate of population growth is slowing down.

Thus, if the population is in the final phase of logistic growth, the population is increasing at a decreasing rate (TRUE)..
