The bacteria have an initial concentration of 1000 cells/cm3 . Each cell divides once every 30 minutes. Calculate how long it wi
Levart [38]

It will take <u>120 minutes</u> for the concentration to become > 15000 cells/cm³

<u>Given data:</u>

Initial concentration ( density ) = 1000 cells / cm³

Target/final concentration = > 15,000 cells /cm³

<h3 /><h3>Calculating the concentration every 30 minutes </h3><h3 />

<em>note</em><em> : Given that each cell divides every 30 minutes </em>

  • <u>After the first 30 minutes </u>

Concentration = 2000 cells / cm³

  • <u>After 60 minutes </u>

concentration = 4000 cells / cm³

  • <u>After 90 minutes </u>

concentration = 8000 cells / cm³

  • <u>After 120 minutes </u>

concentration = 16000 cells / cm³

Therefore after 120 minutes the concentration of the cells will be greater than 15000 cells/cm³ ( i.e. 16000 cells/cm³ )

What is the difference between the ligamentum arteriosum and the ductus arteriosus?
Goshia [24]
In fetal life, the lungs are not expanded, so most of the blood from the right ventricle is shunted from the pulmonary artery to the aorta through the patent ductus arteriosus. With a few breaths the lungs expand, and blood flows from right ventricle to pulmonary artery into the lungs. Withdrawal of circulating prostaglandin from the mother plus bradykinins released from the expanding lung of the infant cause the ductus to close over a few minutes to hours. The closed ductus remains as the ligamentum arteriosum.
