The d-value of a bacterial culture heated to 100°c is the time it takes to kill 90% of the population.

D-value or decimal reduction dose is a term used in microbiology and it refers to decimal reduction time. It can be defined as the time (or dose) required at a given condition (e.g. temperature), to kill 90% of the exposed bacteria.

NemiM [27]

Answer:

The correct flow is - the body (a) Venules/vein/vena cava (b) Right atrium tricuspid valve (c) Right ventricle (d) Pulmonary artery, capillary bed of the lungs(alveoli)

Explanation:

Deoxygenated blood is moved from the tissues to the venules, veins or vena cava to the right atrium chamber and move through the tricuspid valve present in between both right chambers right atrium and right ventricle.

From the right ventricle, the deoxygenated blood is pumped into the pulmonary artery that takes the blood to the lungs more specifically to the capillary bed of lungs.

Thus, the flow is - the body (a) Venules/vein/vena cava (b) Right atrium tricuspid valve (c) Right ventricle (d) Pulmonary artery, capillary bed of the lungs(alveoli)
