A certain strain of bacteria divides every 2 hours. If a colony is started with 80 bacteria, then the time t (in hours) required

for the colony to grow to N bacteria is given by t = 2 log(N/80) log 2 . Find the time required for the colony to grow to two million bacteria.

Answer:

The time required for the colony to grow two million bacteria is 29.22.

Explanation:

Time required for the colony to grow can be calculated by the following equation:

t=2log(N/80)/log 2.

Here t is time, N = 2 million  (require bacteria population).

t=2log(2,000,000/80)/log2

t ≈ 29.22

Time taken by bacteria to grow is 29.22.

Answer:

The correct answer is: Yes, this is an example of Reproductive Isolation.

Explanation:

  • Reproductive Isolation can be defined as the mechanism adopted by different species during the course of their evolution, due to which the individuals belonging to different species are incapable of mating with each other and producing viable offspring.
  • The given question is an example of Mechanical, Pre-zygotic Reproductive Isolation.
  • Prezygotic Isolation refers to the mechanism adopted by individuals of different species during the course of evolution such that successful fertilisation of gametes from individuals of different species never occur, hence a viable zygote is never formed.
  • Mechanical Isolation refers to the mechanism adopted by individuals of  different species during the course of evolution such that their reproductive organs or the organs that assist in the process of reproduction are incompatible to each other. Hence, the gametes of each species are unable to come in vicinity of each other.
  • Here, the pollen grain from the flower of one species of juniper is unable to form the pollen tube when its sits on the stigma of the flower of another species of juniper. This is an example of Mechanical Isolation.

Ice cubes float because as it cools further and freezes into ice, it actually becomes less dense. On the other hand, most substances are most dense in their solid aka frozen state than in their liquid state. Water is different because of hydrogen bonding. ... ice floats because it is about 9% less dense than liquid water.
