Yeast cells are recovered from a fermentation broth by using a tubular centrifuge. Sixty percent of the cells are recovered at a

flow rate of 12 l/min with a rotational speed of 4000 rpm. Recovery is inversely proportional to flow rate. a. To increase the recovery of cells to 95% at the same flow rate, what should be the rpm of the centrifuge?

Answer:

\\ \omega = 5033.22 \ rpm

Explanation:

Given that:

R_1 = 0.6\\\\R_2 = 0.95\\\\\omega_1 = 4000 \ rpm\\\\\omega_2 = ???\\\\Q_1 = 12\ l/min\\\\Q_2 =  12\ l/min

For a continuous centrifuge ; solid recovery R ∝ \frac{\omega^2}{Q}

where;

ω = angular velocity of the centrifuge in rpm

Q = flow rate

SO;

R_1 \alpha \frac{4000^2}{12}

R_2 \alpha  \frac{\omega^2}{12}

\frac{R_1}{R_2} = \frac{4000^2}{12}  ÷  \frac{\omega^2 }{12}

\frac{R_1}{R_2} = \frac{4000^2}{12} * \frac{12}{\omega^2}

\frac{R_1}{R_2} = \frac{4000^2}{\omega^2}\\\\\frac{0.6}{0.95} = \frac{4000^2}{\omega^2}

{\omega^2} = \frac{4000^2*0.95}{0.6}\\\\\\{\omega} = \sqrt{ \frac{4000^2*0.95}{0.6}}\\\\\\ \omega = 5033.22 \ rpm

How many times larger is the number of hydrogen atoms than oxygen atoms in a molecule of water, H2O? ______ b. Is this number th
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is- A) two, B) yes, the number is the same as monosaccharides.

Explanation:

There are three atoms are present in a molecule of water which includes two atoms of the hydrogen and one atom of the oxygen. The hydrogen atom is two times larger in the number of the oxygen atom in a single molecule of the water.

In monosaccharides, the ratio of the atoms of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen is 1:2:1 which means one hydrogen atom would be twice in the number of the carbon and oxygen atoms in a single molecule of monosaccharide molecule.

Thus, the correct answer is - A) two, B) yes, the number is the same as monosaccharides.

identify the types of questions that interest behavior geneticists, and describe the elements of heredity: chromosome, dna, gene
baherus [9]

The interaction between genetics and environment and how this affects behavior, resulting in individual variances, is of particular interest to behavior geneticists.

The environment in this context refers to every external, nongenetic component of our life, including prenatal nutrition and the people and objects in our immediate surroundings.

Chromosomes:

Each of our cells contains 46 chromosomes, 23 from our mother and 23 from our father. Chromosomes are complicated, spiraling molecules formed of DNA that resemble threads and contain genes.

DNA:

We have over 30,000 genes, which are DNA segments that, when activated (expressed), serve as templates for the synthesis of different protein molecules, which serve as the foundation for our physical and behavioral growth.

Genome:

The entire collection of instructions for creating an organism, included in all of its chromosomal genetic material, is called an organism's genome.

Gene:

Combinations of mutations at certain gene locations serve to distinguish us from one another. The majority of human features are not controlled by a single gene acting alone, but rather by a number of genes working together.
