Biology

KIM [24]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

1. A decrease in the number of greenhouse gases that humans produce will result in lowered global temperatures. This will allow the ice sheets in the polar regions to increase increasing also albedo.

2. Using light-colored building materials on houses and pavement in urban centers will work towards increasing albedo as more sunlight is refelcted back by built environments.

3. Decreased deforestation/increase in aforestation increases the earth’s sirface albedo because vegetation reflects back more sunlight than the earth’s bare surface.

Choose the phase of the bacterial growth curve during which a bacterial population has the briefest doubling time.
Scrat [10]
The stage where the doubling time will be the shortest will be the one where replication is taking place the fastest. This phase is known as the exponential phase. This phase is characterized by exponential growth rates of a bacterial colony.

This phase occurs due the excess amount of resources that are present compared to the amount necessary to sustain the bacterial colony. Therefore, not being limited by resources, the bacteria multiply rapidly. However, the resources then run out due to which replication stop, bringing on the lag phase. Finally, the bacteria begin to starve and die off due to the lack of resources, bringing about the death phase.
