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.

20. Does facilitated diffusion require energy for the cell?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer: no

Explanation: The solute can move "downhill," from regions of higher to lower concentration, relying on the specificity of the protein carrier to pass through the membrane. This process is called passive transport or facilitated diffusion, and does not require energy.

Recessive genes mask other genes that are present. <br>True or false? ( Answer worth 25 points;)
balandron [24]
Hello!! I always remember recessive genes as someone having a passive personality and dominant genes as having an assertive personality. Therefore, dominant genes would mask others when present because they have that assertive personality. If you think about it as babies, when their dad has darker hair and the mother has lighter hair, the baby will most likely have darker hair because the darker hair is the dominant gene. I would say that the answer would be false. If you are having trouble understanding, you can always make a Punnett square and see what your outcomes are. I hope I helped. Have a great day!!
