Why does June and July have the highest rate of chemical weathering?
34kurt

It has the highest rate of chemical weathering because chemical weathering occurs much faster in hot, humid climates. This makes rain forests a target for <span>chemical weathering, and in hot seasons, the weathering skyrockets.</span>

Consider the following hypothetical population and compute the statistical measures below: #births = 50,000; #deaths = 10,000; #
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

The birth rate refers to an average number of births in one year per thousand individuals in the population at mid-year.  

BR = (total birth in an annum / total population in mid year) * 1000

BR = (50000 / 1000000) * 1000 = 50

Death rate refers to an average number of death in an annum per thousand individuals in a population at mid year. Thus,  

DR = (total death / total population in mid year) * 1000

DR = (10000 / 1000000) * 1000 = 10

Annual population growth rate or APGR is calculated as:  

APGR = (Birth rate - Death rate) / Death rate

APGR = (50 - 10) / 10 = 4.0 %

Doubling time is the whole sum time needed for a population to get double in size. It is calculated as DT = ln (2) / growth rate

70 / 4.0 = 17.5 years

Thus, population will get double in 17.5 years.  

Adjusted (true) growth rate is equal to APGR + (NMR / Death rate)

And NMR = [(immigrants -emigrants) / total population] * 1000

NMR = [(5000 - 20000) / 1000000] * 1000 = -15

Thus, Adjusted (True) growth rate = 4.0 + (-15 /10) = -6%

The adjusted (true) doubling time = ln (2) / Adjusted growth rate  

= 70 / -6 = -11.66

This negative sign shows that it will never get double in such situation.

Sabouraud's agar restricts the growth of bacteria and is an example of a medium, whereas Mannitol salt agar can determine which
krok68 [10]

Given what we know, we can confirm that the fact that Mannitol salt agar can determine which species of Staphylococcus is present makes it an example of a selective differential medium.

<h3>What is a selective differential medium?</h3>
  • This type of medium is very similar to that of a differential medium in that it also allows more than one type of microbe to grow.
  • It also allows the user to continue to distinguish between the microbe colonies based on biochemical differences.
  • However, in contrast to that of a basic differential medium, this differential medium is also selective in that it controls which type of microbe specifically is allowed to grow.

Therefore, we can confirm that since Mannitol salt agar can determine which species of Staphylococcus is present, it can be considered a differential selective medium because it allows multiple microbes to grow while controlling which types are allowed to grow.
