You perform a spread plate to determine the bacterial population in a batch liquid media. You plate 0.1ml of a 10-5 dilution. Yo

u incubate the plate and count 10 colonies (cfu). What is the bacterial population in cfu/ml of the stock (undiluted) culture? 10 million colonies 1 million colonies 100 million colonies

Answer: 10 million colonies

The volume of media used is 0.1ml and the concentration diluted to 10^-5, so the actual volume used would be: 0.1ml * 10^-5= 1ml * 10^-6

The media shows 10 colonies. The number of colonies per volume would be: 10 cfu/ (1ml * 10^-6)= 10* 10^6 cfu/ml= 10 million cfu/ml

What is the unique structural modification in lymphatic capillaries that increases their permeability?
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Minivalves

Explanation:

Lymphatic capillaries are so much permeable that some researchers thought that they are open from one side but scientists found that this permeability is due to some structural modification.

The endothelial cell that forms the lymphatic capillaries wall are not packed tightly and overlap each other very loosely which makes easy openings in the structure called mini valves.

When the pressure of fluid in interstitial space is high then the mini valves become open and allow the fluid to enter the lymphatic capillary. So mini valves are the unique structural modification that increases permeability in lymphatic capillaries.

Answer:

The bacteria found on roots, mainly on legumes, are related to the nitrogen cycle because nitrogen found in the environment is not usable by many species but because the bacteria can "fix" the nitrogen, it is usable by the plant which in turn it returned into the environment.

Describe the direction of DNA replication. Why is that important?
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

DNA replication is the process by that DNA make a copy to the cell division.

Explanation:

  • DNA replication is the double structure to the DNA molecule,it is biological process.
  • DNA replication molecule the serve that template for the production to referred conservative replication.
  • DNA replication occurs living the biological property of division and they performed complementary stand.
  • DNA replication to that begin the specific location and origins in the genome, and growing from the origin.
  • DNA replication is performed to the outside and artificially to the cell,in the DNA molecule.
  • DNA replication is single strand by the DNA chain of nucleotide function, DNA contain the sugar .
  • DNA replication is the basis of single strand to 3 prime and 5 prime  end, these refer to the carbon atom in the chain attaches.
  • DNA replication allow the strand to the one another strand to used in partner strand.
  • DNA replication is to matched in the template strand at one time with the creation of bonds,they high energy bonds.
