Answer:

 C) 128

Explanation:

In binary fission each bacterial cell will divide into two parts.

1. Since the bacteria divides divides after every 20 min , We have to find the number of division in two hours two hour(2x60=120 min) which will be;

120÷20=6

It will undergo 6 divisions.

2. To calculate the number of bacteria at the end of 2 hours

Bacteria in the beginning x 2∧ Number of division

1× 2∧6= 128 Bacteria

olganol [36]
Hello! 

The type of polymer that is made by bonding an alkene to one or more alkanes or alkenes is called addition polymer

Addition polymers are those whose polymerization reaction doesn't produce low molecular mass compounds but the bonding of molecules one after the other. Such a reaction implies that there is a rupture in the bonding between monomers (the building blocks of the polymer) to allow the formation of a chain. 

Bonding an alkene to one or more alkanes or alkenes is an example of an addition polymerization.

Explanation:

The KE of a pendulum bob is maximum where it moves fastest, at the lowest point; PE is maximum at the uppermost points. When the pendulum bob swings by the point that marks half its maximum height, it has half its maximum KE, and its PE is halfway between its minimum and maximum values.
