Answer:

21.81grams

Explanation:

According to the question, an agar medium requires the following ingredients: 21 grams (g) of

agar, 500 mg of dextrose, 3 dg of sodium, and 1 cg of potassium per 1,000 milliliters (mL) of distilled water.

Hence, the dry ingredient contain 21grams (g) of agar, 500milligrams (mg) of dextrose, 3decigrams (dg) of Sodium, and 1centigrams (cg) of pottasium.

We need to convert all units (not in grams (g)) to grams.

1grams = 1000milligrams

500 milligrams = 500/1000

= 0.500grams.

1grams = 10decigrams

3decigrams = 3/10

= 0.3grams

1grams = 100centigrams

1centigrams = 1/100

= 0.01 grams

Therefore, we have 21g, 0.500g, 0.3g, and 0.01g

The total dry weight of the ingredients will be:

21 + 0.500 + 0.3 + 0.01

= 21.81grams

The correct answer should be 70 grams but since that's not one of the options you should choose the closest to it, which is 65 grams.

<span>The recommended intake of protein for the pregnant woman is 70 g to meet protein needs during pregnancy, while non-pregnant is only 45g/day.

In 1918, the Russian Tsar Nicholas II was deposed, and he and his family were reportedly executed and buried in a shallow grave.
GaryK [48]

Answer:

By making a paternity test by Short tandem repeats, or STRs (microsatellites).

Explanation:

Short tandem repeats, or STRs, are microsatellites consisting of repeated sequences of 2 to 6 base pair length monomers  in tandem, and most of them have a high degree of polymorphism. Half of an individual microsatellites are inherited by each parent, and they can be assesed by PCR amplification and further electrophoresis.

In this case, you would try to recover a bone from the remainings of the woman, the Tsar and his wife, since the rest of the latest were in a shallow grave with many different individuals. Preferably, you should manipulate this samples in an ancient DNA facility (aDNA) with proper techniques. You clean the bone samples, drill them, and from internal bone powder make a DNA extraction. After this, you perform a series of PCR targeting a panel of STRs, and electrophoresis. If the woman claim is true, half of her microsatellites should have correspondence with the Tsar, and half with the ones of his wife.

Why are some people asymptomatic?
o-na [289]

Explanation:

In medicine, a condition is considered asymptomatic if the patient is a carrier of a disease or infection but does not experience symptoms. A condition can be asymptomatic if it does not present the noticeable symptoms with which it is normally associated. Asymptomatic infections are also called subclinical infections. Other conditions (such as mental illness) may be considered subclinical if they present some but not all of the symptoms required for a clinical diagnosis. The term clinically silent is also used.
