You dilute an unknown sample of bacteria to 1 x 10-6 and plate out 10 onto a Petri dish. The next day you count 64 colonies. The
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

b

Explanation:

The correct answer would be 6.4 x 10^6 cells/ul.

For 1 x 10-6 dilution, the plating factor is 10^6. To find the number of bacteria in the original sample, the plating factor is multiplied by the colony count per ul.

<em>Number of viable bacteria = plating factor x colony count/ul</em>

Since 10 ul gives 64 colonies.  1 ul will give:

         64/10 = 6.4 colonies.

Therefore, the viable bacteria in the original sample = 6.4 x 10^6 cells/ul

The correct option is b.

Ordinary cell division produces two daughter cells that are genetically identical. This type of cell division is important for a
Ratling [72]

Answer:

C) production of sperm and eggs

Explanation:

Sperms and eggs are the male and female gametes respectively. Formation of sperms and egg cells require meiotic cell division. Meiosis in sperm mother cells and egg mother cells reduces the chromosome number of half in the sperms and eggs. Meiosis also adds new gene combinations in these gametes by the process of crossing over.  

Mitosis cannot reduce the chromosome number to half in the sperms and eggs. Absence of crossing over in mitosis leads to the formation of genetically identical progeny cells from mitosis.  

Hence, mitosis can not form sperms and egg cells.  If it does, the sperms and egg cells would not have genetic variations and there would be doubling of chromosome number with each round of sexual reproduction.

What would happen to an ecosystem if an invasive
MrRa [10]

Explanation:

the top predator is removed from the delicate balance of any particular ecosystem, there may be disastrous effects for the other plants and animals that inhabit the environment.

When a top predator is removed from an ecosystem, a series knock-on effects are felt throughout all the levels in a food web, as each level is regulated by the one above it. This is known as a trophic cascade. The results of these trophic cascades can lead to an ecosystem being completely transformed. The impacts trickle down through each level, upsetting the ecological balance by altering numbers of different animal species, until the effects are finally felt by the vegetation

When a top predator is no longer present, populations of their herbivorous prey begin to boom. Without a top predator to regulate their numbers, these animals put a great deal of pressure on the existing vegetation that they require for food and can destroy large amounts of plant life, such as grasses and trees. This then causes further problems, such as soil erosion and loss of animal habitat. Eventually, humans are also impacted due to the resulting lack of soil fertility and clean water that depend on these plants.

Another problem involving the loss of vegetation is the competition that is created between herbivorous species. Competition between species for the remaining plant life is high and weaker species lose out to stronger ones, leading to the potential loss of weaker animals, as well as plant species. Increased competition, therefore, leads to a lack of biodiversity. In contrast, top predators often have varied diets, which means they can pursue a new food source if one is running low, preventing the first source from being eradicated completely. This is one of the ways that top predators are able to maintain biodiversity and the balance of an ecosystem.

The presence of a top predator also helps to maintain balance in an ecosystem by influencing the behaviour and movements of its prey through the fear of being caught. Animals that are prey to a top predator will move around in order to avoid it. This prevents plants and animals in any particular area of an ecosystem from being over-consumed, preserving food sources and habitats. In the absence of top predators, this regulation disappears, allowing certain areas of vegetation to be destroyed completely.

The subpapillary plexus
noname [10]

Answer:

Subpapillary plexus nourishes the dermal papillae and epidermis.

Explanation:

The superficial subpapillary plexus could also be regarded to as superficial plexus . It is composed of postcapillary venules found at the junction of the  papillary and reticular dermis and the lower plexus at the dermal subcutaneous interface. It lies below the dermal papillae, and supplies the capillaries in the dermal papillae. The pink color of skin is mainly due to the blood seen in venules of this plexus.
