Which solution of ethyl alcohol is more effective at inhibiting microbial growth: a 70% solution or a 100% solution? Why?

Biology
1 answer:
Triss [41]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

70% solution is more effective

Explanation:

The 70% solution is more effective at inhibiting microbial growth than the 100% solution of the ethyl alcohol.

This is because the pure ethyl alcohol coagulates the protein that is in contact with it.

Also, pure alcohol will tend to evaporate faster than the 70% solution of the ethyl alcohol and it will not be that much effective.

Which statement is true about climate change and biodiversity?
8090 [49]
Climate change and biodiversity are two completely different things. In some areas, climate change will increase biodiversity, allowing more species to live in certain climates, but it will make some species lose their habitats. Biodiversity helps ecosystems thrive, and generally keeps things in balance. However, introducing too many species in an area can cause increase competition for food, risking predators of different species to kill one another off. Both climate change and biodiversity can be good and bad.

Answer: C. It can help some species and hurt others.
