Answer:

This is to ensure accurate recording and  interpretations of the observed results without Carbohydrate.

To ensure that the observed results was due to the expected investigating factor, and not due to any external factor.

Explanation:

The basal media without  carbohydrate is the negative control setup. since there is no carbohydrate their will be no  bacterial growth .Therefore the activities of the bacteria can be fully observed . However the basal media with carbohydrate  have full growth since CHO is available as nutrient; ,asexual reproduction will occur and growth takes palce.  Thus the control(without CHO) and the  actual experiment can be compared for accuracy. Therefore the basal media without CHO. acted as active negative control for results analysis and interpretation.

In addition the two growth media  should be   inoculated. Thus any observable changes can be attributed to bacterial growth, and not due to any external factors.This justify  reasons for the answers above.

Answer:

As a control, which, in this case, is a negative control. Since there is no carbohydrate added there will be no bacterial growth. In your tubes which do have some carbohydrate there will be bacterial growth. Since you used a control you can compare any changes in the tubes in which you have growth to the tubes without growth, which would represent the original state of the media. This makes any results easier to notice and interpret rather than having to remember what the tubes used to look like.

It also ensures that any change in the media is due to the growth of the bacteria and not some external factor. Since both sets of tubes were inoculated but only one set shows some change you can be sure that that change is due to the growth of the bacteria.

What structure of the sarcomere shortens during muscle contraction?
LiRa [457]

Answer:

The Z lines and H- zone shortens during the muscle contraction.

Explanation:

Sarcomere is the area between the two Z lines. The Z- lines are present in the centre of I - band and H - zone is present in the A - band. The actin filaments which are thin filaments present in I- band and contracts, slide over the myosin filament during contraction.

The I - band, H- zones are became shortens as they are thin than the A- band. It is anisotropic band having thick myosin filaments. They are not flexible and remain in its constant shape during the muscle contraction.

After the muscle contraction, the A- band and the H- zone comes to their original shape. In other words, the sarcomere shortens and comes back during muscle contraction, and relaxation.

What type of monomers are combined to form carbohydrates?.
Illusion [34]
Saccharides are the monomers which are combined to form carbohydrates.

Depending on the type of carbohydrate, the monomer components can be monosaccharides, disaccharide, polysaccharide, etc.

E.g: Sucrose is a carbohydrate (specifically a dissacharide) that is made of glucose and fructose monosaccharides.

Another example is cellulose, which is a carbohydrate (specifically a polysaccharide) that is made of beta glucose monosaccharide components combined together.
