A bacteria culture begins with 15 bacteria which double in amount at the end of every hour. How many bacteria are grown during t
pochemuha
Here is a list showing how the bacteria grows:

Begin      -   15
1st hour   -   30
2nd hour  -   60
3rd hour   -  120
4th hour   -   240
5th hour   -   480
6th hour   -   960
7th hour   -   1,920
8th hour   -   3,840
9th hour   -   7,680
10th hour -   15,360
11th hour -   30,720
12th hour -   61,440

As you can see, the number of bacteria present is doubled at the end of each hour, as the question states. However, the question is not asking for the total number of bacteria at the end of the 12th hour; it is asking for the bacteria GROWN during the 12th hour.

Because there were 30,720 bacteria at the end of the 11th hour, and 61,440 at the end of the 12th, the number of bacteria that grew during that last hour must be 61,440 - 30,720 = 30,720 bacteria.

(P.S. the answer would be 61,440 if it was asking for the TOTAL number of bacteria at the end of the 12th hour)

Explain the basis for the great diversity of proteins in living organism.
sashaice [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Protein functions are so diverse because of the many unique three-dimensional structures protein polymers form. Despite such variety, proteins also share several specific structural characteristics in their monomers, the amino acids. Structural similarities among amino acids make protein synthesis a uniform and regulated process; however, each amino acid contains a unique structural component as well. Specific differences between each amino acid interact to create unique three-dimensional protein structures. Combined, the similarities and differences between amino acids explain how cells can build a diverse pool of proteins from the same set of building blocks. Protein synthesis involves building a polymer of amino acids with complex three-dimensional structure. Dehydration synthesis forms a peptide bond between amino acids and releases a water molecule.
