Confused on what has to be answered but that’s the spirit
Answer:
281474976710656
Explanation:
As each half hour passes, the colony of bacteria doubles. Initially, the numbers are fairly low, but the amounts become larger and larger as they compound.
Hour 0- 1
Hour 0.5- 2
Hour 1- 4
Hour 1.5- 8
Hour 2- 16
Hour 2.5- 32
By hour 10, the bacteria will have increased to 1048576. By hour 15, the number of bacteria will be 1073741824. By hour 24, the colony will contain 281474976710656 bacteria.
Seeing as it is by the coast, the abundance of biodiversity will likely be due to more precipitation. It’s unlikely that colder term-erasures would lead to biodiversity, nor would less annual precipitation- life generally thrives on warmth and water
