Lady bird [3.3K]

33% is the unknown concentration of the tube.

Explanation:

Concentration of stock of windex = 50%

concentration of bacteria = 500 microliter

nutrient broth = 1000 micro litre +500 microlitre of windex

concentration of bacteria is the volume of bacteria present in nutrient broth culture.

total volume in the tube is 1000

50% is the concentration of tube of bacteria and broth before adding windex.

After adding windex of 50 % concentration and the volume is 500 microliter which is only 250 microliter of windex rest is water.

33% is the concentration of the tube, which means it has 33% of bacteria in 1500 ml of solution.

Does Ajay’s diet provide enough protein to meet his RDA of 0.8g/kg of body weight? (2.2lbs = 1kg)

Answer:

The correct answer is yes.

Explanation:

RDA or recommended dietary allowance refers to the minimum amount of a nutrient, that is, regarded as essential for the proper functioning of the body or to sustain good health. The RDA is formulated by the Nutrition Board of the National Research Council.  

In the given case, the weight of Ajay is 154 pounds. In terms of kilograms, 1 kg is equivalent to 2.2 pounds.  

Thus, 154 pounds will be equal to 154/2.2 = 70 Kg.  

Based on RDA, the requirement of protein for a healthy individual should be 0.8 g/kg of the body weight. Therefore, Ajay needs to consume 70*0.8 = 56 grams of protein. However, based on his diet he is consuming 78 grams of proteins in a day. Hence, it can be concluded that Ajay is consuming adequate protein to meet his RDA.

The answer is B)<span> </span>temporal isolation.

<span>
<span>Temporal isolation is a type of reproductive isolation, which could be prezygotic or postzygotic. Temporal isolation is prezygotic reproductive isolation since it occurs before fertilization and zygote production. Temporal isolation is result of temporal differences in breeding. In this example, the breeding season of Rana aurora lasts from January to March while the breeding season of Rana boylii lasts from April to July. So, these two breeding seasons do not coincide and these species could not mate.</span></span>
