A loopful of bacteria containing 1000 bacterial cells is inoculated into a nutrient broth and incubated. After a negligible lag

phase, the culture goes into exponential growth for two hours. The generation time for the bacterium is fifteen minutes. Which equation is the correct one to determine the number of cells present after two hours of log phase growth?
a. 1000 X 28
b. 1000 X 16
c. 1000 X 22
d. 1000 X 2 X 2 X 15

Answer:

<h2>a.</h2>

Explanation:

Given;

Initial population of bacteria = 1000;

exponential growth for 2 hours;

generation time = 15 minutes;

so,

Bacteria are doubling in every fifteen minute,

In staring, there are 1000 bacteria and after fifteen minutes they become 2000 and after next fifteen minutes bacteria again doubles and become 4000   and so on for next two hours.

so after 2 hours, number of cells of  bacteria present are 1000 X 2^8

Total bacterial cells after two hours= 256000.

Why must cells divide to stay small or change shape to reduce volume?
stepan [7]

Answer:

if the cell grows beyond a certain limit, not enough material will be able to cross the membrane fast enough to accommodate the increased cellular volume. When this happens, the cell must divide into smaller cells with favorable surface area/volume ratios, or cease to function. That is why cells are so small.

You have two carts, one which is empty and has mass m. The second cart is of the same mass but
Ahat [919]

Their kinetic energies would be the same. The cart is empty and has a mass m. The second cart is of the same mass but loaded with twice the mass of the empty cart. 1 joule of work or energy is equal to the work done by a force of one newton acting through one meter.

<h3>What is kinetic energy? </h3>

A moving item or particle might have the power of a certain sort called kinetic energy. When work, which entails the transfer of energy, is done on an object by applying a net force, that object acquires kinetic energy. Kinetic energy, which depends on an item or particle's mass and velocity of motion, is a property of motion. Any combination of vibration, axis rotation, translation (or movement along a route from one place to another), and translation are all examples of motion.

The kinetic energy of each would be equal.

This is because the force, F, acting on them moves the same distance, d, hence the work done by the force is W = Fd.

Using the ideas of work-kinetic energy, let's now

W = K, where K is the difference in the kinetic energy of the carts.

Given that the effort done was the same for both carts, the change in kinetic energy would also be equal.

Since they start at rest, K = K' - K = K' - 0 = K'.

Therefore, the kinetic energies of the carts would be the same.
