You have studied some microbes that cause disease. Understanding how microbes grow and multiply is important when identifying an

Mila [183]

Answer:

Structure: unicellular organisms (single-celled), no nucleus or membrane-bound organelles, genetic material usually composed of a single circular bacterial chromosome coiled up in a region of the cytoplasm

Function: metabolic functions are carried out in the bacterial cytoplasm

Replication: generally asexual (binary fission)

Explanation:

Bacteria are prokaryotic organisms, i.e., unicellular organisms that do not have a cell nucleus nor any membrane-bound organelles . Generally, the genetic material is composed of a single DNA circular molecule (bacterial chromosome), which is localized in a specific region of the cytoplasm (nucleoid region). Prokaryotic cells are usually smaller than eukaryotic cells (0.1 - 5 μm in size). In bacteria, metabolic functions (i.e., growth and reproduction) occur in the cytoplasm. The most important process of reproduction in bacteria is binary fission, a form of asexual reproduction where a single bacterial cell divides into two. Bacteria can also exchange genetic material by sexual reproduction mechanisms (i.e., conjugation, transformation and transduction). The main strategy to prevent outbreaks caused by bacteria is to know the conditions where they grow and reproduce. For example, Salmonella is a genus of infectious bacteria that may cause an outbreak. Salmonella infection may be prevented by eliminating conditions where they can multiply. Measures to prevent Salmonella outbreaks include cook food thoroughly (do not eat raw eggs or raw beef), refrigerate foods, wash hands, etc.

A sand storage tank used by the highway department for winter storms is leaking. As the sand leaks out, it forms a conical pile.

harina [27]

Answer:

Rate of change of volume of the pile $= 54\pi$

Explanation:

Given -

Rate of increase of the base of the pile $= 0.75$ inches per minute

Height of the pile $= 2 *$ the radius of the base

Let "h" be the height of the pile and "r" be the radius of the base.

Then $h = 2* r$

Radius "r" $= 6$ inches

Rate of change of radius i.e

$\frac{dr}{dt} = 0.75$

Volume of conical pile

$\frac{\pi }{3} * r^2 * h\\= \frac{\pi }{3} * r^2 * 2 * r\\= \frac{\pi }{3} *2* r^3$

Change in volume of conical pile

$\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{dr}{dt} * \frac{6* \pi * r^2 }{3}$

Substituting the value of rate of change of radius, we get -

$\frac{dV}{dt} = 2 * \pi * (6^2) * (0.75)\\\frac{dV}{dt} = 54 \pi$

Rate of change of volume of the pile $= 54\pi$

Why there is uncertainty in science.

andrew11 [14]

Answer: absolute certainty is often difficult to achieve. Scientific uncertainty generally means that there is a range of possible values within which the true value of the measurement lies.

According to the nebular theory, a solar system begins when an interstellar cloud, containing approximately 75% hydrogen, 25% he

azamat

"Gravitational attraction" is initially responsible for the formation of the clumps of matter within this interstellar cloud.

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

About 4.6 billion years ago, the solar systems were a bunch of gases and dusts, referred to solar nebula. Gravity squeezed the material as it started to rotate, creating the sun at the middle of the fog.

The rest of the material began to accumulate with the sunrise. The smaller particles moved together to form larger particles that were connected by gravity. As lumps develop, gravity increases and turns into kinetic energy of moving particles that collide and produce heat.
