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.  1000 X 2^8</h2>

Explanation:

As given;

Initial population of bacteria= 1000;

Log phase growth is exponential phase, period in which bacteria gets double.

Generation time= 15 minutes;

it means, bacteria get double in every 15 minute,

so after 2 hours, bacteria will have 8 generation times;

so the final generation of bacteria is =1000 X 2^8.

Final bacterial generation after two hours = 256,000(1000 X 2^8)

Answer:

D       Flow of protons across an electrochemical gradient

Explanation:

The chloroplast adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthase uses the electrochemical proton gradient generated by photosynthesis to produce ATP, the energy currency of all cells. Protons conducted through the membrane-embedded Fo motor drive ATP synthesis in the F1 head by rotary catalysis.

In chloroplasts, photosynthetic electron transport generates a proton gradient across the thylakoid membrane which then drives ATP synthesis via ATP synthase.

The light-induced electron transfer in photosynthesis drives protons into the thylakoid lumen. The excess protons flow out of the lumen through ATP synthase to generate ATP in the stroma.

Majority of ATP is produced by OXIDATION PHOSPHORYLATION. The generation of ATP by oxidation phosphorylation differs from the way ATP is produced during glycolysis.

Electrons are passed from one member of the transport chain to another in a series of redox reactions. Energy released in these reactions is captured as a proton gradient, which is then used to make ATP in a process called chemiosmosis.
