Answer: 43 x 10^6 CFU.
Explanation:
Plate count is a method used to determine the number of viable microorganisms in a sample. When the bacterial concentration is high, serial dilutions are carried out in a 1:10 sequence. <u>Then, the dilutions are successive dilutions keeping the dilution factor constant at each step</u>. Small aliquots of these dilutions are seeded in medium contained in a Petri dish where the bacteria grow forming colonies. Then the plates are incubated and colonies develop both within the agar and on the surface.
If the concentration of the seeded aliquot is too high, the bacteria will grow too much and it will not be possible to distinguish the colonies. <u>However, if the concentration is very low, the number of colony forming units (CFU) may be very low and thus can be counted</u>.
Colony forming units are calculated:
CFU = Number of colonies / (volume seeded on the plate * dilution).
The dilution is 10^-6, the number of colonies counted is 43, and usually the volume plated is 0.1 mL, so we replace that in the equation:
CFU= 43 / (0.1 mL * 10^-6)
CFU= 43000000 = 43 x 10^6
The correct answer is 3 billion years old as per the banded iron sample obtained from Canada
Answer:
Phototropism
Explanation:
Phototropism. Although both types of movement orient plants toward a light source, heliotropism is not the same as phototropism. Phototropism is the term that describes the growth of a plant toward any light source.

A- is wrong because that is multiple organisms
B- correct: it is one organism
C- is wrong because it has no cells
D- is wrong, a heart is an organ which makes up organ systems which makes organisms, but is not an organism itself
Answer:
In humans, there is a readiness to perceive ourselves on priority and favorably. This is one of the reasons that helps in increasing the remembering memories of events that are favorable to the individual which results in benefits, it is known as self-serving bias.
Self-esteem is something that helps in knowing the self-worth and the importance of happiness of one's own. Being aware of environmental control result in achieving better in life and experienced less stress. The potential use of the capabilities of individuals results in increasing awareness about what is the purpose of the life of an individual.
