Which of the two tests would likely produce more false negatives with a shorter incubation time?

Biology
1 answer:
Masteriza [31]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: A short incubation time runs the risk of a false negative on the VP test, since not enough time may have elapsed to produce an adequate amount of acetoin to give a positive result. The pH change associated with mixed acid fermentation occurs fairly quickly and is less likely to be affected by shorter incubation.

b) The VP test would benefit most from a longer incubation time because it takes a while for the 2,3-butanodiol to be produced.

How do scientific models provide a practical solution for some types of research? Check all that apply.
ankoles [38]

Models are simplified representations of of different complex systems. They also help to study very small or large objects.

Option B, D and E.

Explanation:

Models are very simplified representations of complex systems and organs or structures which are prepared to study those systems by scientists and normal people easily. Many structures of human body like cells or some tissues are very small in structure or microscopic in nature. So studying them are very hard without specific instruments which are not always available. Thus models are made to easily study those structures by scientists and even normal people and students.

The bacteria in some foods are sterilized by placing the food near a source of ionizing radiation does that mean that the food b
Firlakuza [10]
<span>Normally sterilizing food using radiation does not induce radioactivity but sometimes it may change the taste, texture of the food and it may also destroy the nutrients. radiation is used to kill the harmful bacteria and to increase the shelf life. when the radiation is very energetic it alters the food structure but it does not make it radioactive. To become radioactive one has to make a nucleus unstable. ionizing radiation normally cannot do this. FDA has established maximum energy levels for radiation to prevent the treated foods from becoming radioactive. The energy levels of the rays are too low to induce radioactivity in the food. So there is no harm in consuming treated foods.</span>
