Answer:

The serial dilution can be done by half- logarithmic dilution method.

Explanation:

  • This is also called the Ten-fold dilution method.
  • The process involves the following steps, and the volumes represented are arbitrary.
  1. From the concentrated solution of the disinfectant take 1 ml of disinfectant in a falcon tube. 9 ml of water is added to that. Here we get a solution which is  \frac{1}{10} diluted.
  2. Take 1 ml of the above \frac{1}{10} diluted solution in another falcon and add 9 ml of water to it. Here we will get a solution which is  \frac{1}{20} diluted.
  3. Take 1 ml of the above \frac{1}{20} diluted solution in another falcon and add 9 ml of water to it. Here we will get a solution which is  \frac{1}{40} diluted.
  4. Take 1 ml of the above \frac{1}{40} diluted solution in another falcon and add 9 ml of water to it. Here we will get a solution which is  \frac{1}{80} diluted.

Which of the following statements is true about Tiktaalik?
yawa3891 [41]

Tiktaalik is a transitional fossil which shows how fish evolved into amphibians and reptiles. So the correct option is B.

What is Tiktaalik?

Tiktaalik is a direct ancestor of tetrapods or four-legged animals. It is an extinct fish-like animal and it lived on earth 380-385 million years ago (Devonian period).

The word Tiktaalik is derived from the <em>Inuktitut</em> language which loosely translates to large freshwater fish. This animal had characteristics of both fish and tetrapod and is therefore called the link between these two kinds of animals.

The characters resembling fish are gills and scales and the characters resembling tetrapods are rib bones, movable neck and lungs. There are characters that are a mix of both tetrapods and fish. These are bones and joints in limbs but fish-like fins instead of feet or hands.
