Suppose you perform a serial dilution of Amylase from a stock solution with a concentration of 500ug/mL. In five tests tubes you

add 4mL of water. Then you aliquot 1mL of the stock solution into test tube 1 and vortex. From there you aliquot 1mL from test tube 1 into test tube 2. You continue to mix this way into each consecutive test tube. What is the final concentration in test-tube 3?

Answer:

The final concentration in test-tube 3 is = 4ug/mL

Explanation:

Dilution factor = V initial / V final

Concentration of Stock solution = 500 ug/mL

5 test tubes are prepared with 4 mL of water

1 ml of stock solution is added to the 1st test tube.

therefore, the total volume of 1st test tube is = 4 ml + 1 ml = 5ml

∴ the concentration of 1st Test tube →

 C = m/V   [m= mass (solute) , v= volume]

     =500 ug / 5 ml  = 100 ug/ml

From 1st test tube, 1 ml is taken out and that is added to the 2nd  test tube.

∴ the concentration of 2nd Test tube = 100 ug / 5ml

                                                                = 20 ug/ml

From  2nd test tube, 1 ml is taken out and that is added to the 3rdd  test tube.

∴ the concentration of 3rd Test tube = 20 ug / 5ml

                                                              = 4 ug/ml

The final concentration in test-tube 3 is = 4ug/mL

<h2>Agglomeration</h2>

Explanation:

  • The term agglomeration is an economic term used to refer to the phenomenon of firms being located close to one another. There are a number of components we'll explore later in this lesson, but for now, just remember that agglomeration relates to clusters of population or business activity.
  • Agglomeration, the adhering of particles to each other or to strong surfaces, is a characteristic marvel.  
  • Agglomeration also changes the mass attributes of particulate solids typically to improve things. Bigger particles have less residue, display improved stream conduct, and highlight decreased staying inclinations.
  • Hence, the right answer for the fill up the blank is "Agglomeration"

The nervous system regulates breathing
Gwar [14]

Answer:

The respiratory centers that control your rate of breathing are in the brainstem or medulla. The nerve cells that live within these centers automatically send signals to the diaphragm and intercostal muscles to contract and relax at regular intervals.

Drag the pink labels onto the pink targets to identify the two main phases of the cell cycle. Then drag the blue labels onto the
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

There is no diagram provided so I will just explain the mitotic cell cycle.

Here’s a quick basic arrangement in chronological order interphase, mitosis, and finally cytokinesis.

So first you start with interphase which consist of three phases G1 phase, S phase, G2 phase. Cellular growth occurs in G1 phase of interphase this is followed by S phase which is simply when DNA replication occurs. Final this is followed by G2 phase or further growth in preparation for mitosis and/or meiosis.  

I am only going to explain mitosis but just so I don’t confuse you meiosis can also follow interphase. So mitosis consist of four phases. Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

Prophase: in this phase the nuclear membrane would dissipate and the chromosomes would condense.

Metaphase: then in metaphase the chromosomes would align in the center of the cell and spindle fibers or microtubules would began growth from the centrioles.  

Anaphase: by the start of this phase spindle fibers would have attached themselves to the chromosomes kinetochores. In this phase the chromatids would separate and that’s really it as you can tell this is the shortest phase in mitosis.

Telophase: finally the chromosomes would be brought to the polar opposite ends of the cell and the nuclear membrane would reform. Also the chromosomes condensed chromosomes would unravel eventually they would be invisible.

Finally the cell would enter cytokinesis were it would split at the cleavage furrow which would have started in anaphase of telophase, all a cleavage furrow is, is microfilaments “pinching the cell” which is just them pulling on either side of the center of the cell.

Which of the following methods results in active acquired immunity?
tatyana61 [14]
The answer is Vaccination. 
Acquired or adaptive immunity is the body's third line of defense. This is protection against specific types of pathogens. Acquired immunity may be either natural or artificial in nature. Both natural and artificial immunity have passive and active components. Active immunity results from an infection or an immunization, while passive immunity comes from naturally or artificially gaining antibodies.
