Answer: 43 x 10^6 CFU.
Explanation:
Plate count is a method used to determine the number of viable microorganisms in a sample. When the bacterial concentration is high, serial dilutions are carried out in a 1:10 sequence. <u>Then, the dilutions are successive dilutions keeping the dilution factor constant at each step</u>. Small aliquots of these dilutions are seeded in medium contained in a Petri dish where the bacteria grow forming colonies. Then the plates are incubated and colonies develop both within the agar and on the surface.
If the concentration of the seeded aliquot is too high, the bacteria will grow too much and it will not be possible to distinguish the colonies. <u>However, if the concentration is very low, the number of colony forming units (CFU) may be very low and thus can be counted</u>.
Colony forming units are calculated:
CFU = Number of colonies / (volume seeded on the plate * dilution).
The dilution is 10^-6, the number of colonies counted is 43, and usually the volume plated is 0.1 mL, so we replace that in the equation:
CFU= 43 / (0.1 mL * 10^-6)
CFU= 43000000 = 43 x 10^6
Answer:
C) Faults form in the lithosphere.
Explanation:
Faults form in lithosphere is part of transform boundaries because the plates simply slide past each other without causing any change to the lithosphere (i.e it is neither created nor destroyed) which is why transform boundaries are also sometimes referenced when we speak about phenomena related to when plates slide in opposite directions.
1. Muscular tissue
2. Anatomical terminology
3. cartilage
4. pleura ( visceral pleura & parietal pleura)
5. four overlapping processes; maintenance of homoeostasis, an inflammatory response, a proliferative phase, and remodeling
Not too sure about 2 and 5 but here ya go
C. must be controlled to coordinate with the cell cycle
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
The benefits of sexual reproduction:
In the offspring, genetic variation produces
Due to variation, the species can adapt to new environments, giving them a survival advantage.
a disease is less likely to affect all the individuals in a population
