Answer:

B. By taking in inorganic substances

Explanation:

When you think of autotrophs, you may think of plants, and how do plants get nutrition?

By taking in inorganic substances like carbon dioxide or sunlight, then converting it into energy.

<u>Answer</u>:  

Autotrophs gets nutrition by taking the inorganic substances.

<u>Explanation</u>:  

Autotrophs also called producers. Autotrophs make their food that is glucose with the help of reduction of inorganic substances like carbon dioxide from atmosphere and water from ground into the six carbon sugar molecules like glucose in the presence of Sunlight.

The process by which the autotrophs make their food is photosynthesis. Photosynthesis involves the synthesis of organic material with the help of photons as energy and inorganic compounds taken from the atmosphere.

Answer: C

Explanation: Smaller single-celled organisms have a high surface area to volume ratio, which allows them to rely on oxygen and material diffusing into the cell (and wastes diffusing out) in order to survive. The higher the surface area to volume ratio they have, the more effective this process can be.

1. You are given the task to quantify the bacteria in your soil sample. You do a 10-fold serial dilution of your soil sample in
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

A serial dilution and the following plating experiment is done in order to determine the actual amount of bacteria/microbes in a specific volume of soil sample. As a standard test, a set volume of the lower dilution is obtained and positioned on a median plate and permitted to increase for the needed amount of time. The amount of colonies is evaluated and thus the overall Colony Forming Units (CFU) is determined by unit volume of the sample plated and therefore the volume of soil sample employed.

Therefore,

The calculation is done using:

CFU/ml = Number of colonies appeared × dilution factor / volume plated

Given,

Number of colonies appeared = 97

dilution factor = 10^(-6)

volume plated = 1/10 = 0.1

This will help us calculate it as:

CFU/ml = 97 * 10^(-6) / 0.1

= 97 * 10^(-7) CFU/ml

This CFU/ml helps determine the amount of bacterial colonies per unit volume of sample plated.

Given,

The original sample as 1g or 1000 mg of soil in its total volume.

Therefore,

The number of bacteria can be calculated using:

Amount of bacteria in original sample

= 97 * 10^(-7) CFU/ml × 1/ 1000 mg

= 9.7 * 10^(-3) CFU/mg

Virty [35]
Sickle cell disease has a benefit in malaria infection because it makes the parasites easier to eliminate. This makes a person with sickle cell disease is more likely to survive the malaria infection, which found many in Africa.
<span>
Sickle cell disease has a few drawbacks because it makes the red blood cells less durable, which lead to the destruction of more red blood cells. In normal condition(where malaria doesn't exist like in America), this gene will make the organism less likely to survive than those who don't have the gene.</span>
