Answer:
(a) number of strands (n) = time (t) ÷ proportionality constant (k)
(b) The time needed for the bacterial to double its initial size is 3.36 hours.
Explanation:
(a) Let the rate (time) be represented by t and the amount (number) of strands of bacteria be represented by n
t is proportional to n, therefore, t = kn (k is the proportionality constant)
Since t = kn, then, n = t/k
(b) Initial amount of strands = 300
Amount of strands after 2 hours = 300 + (300 × 20/100) = 300 + 60 = 360
k = t/n = 2/360 = 0.0056 hour/strand
Double of the initial size is 600 (300×2 = 600)
Time (t) needed for the bacterial to double its initial size = kn = 0.0056×600 = 3.36 hours
Answer:
over land in polar regions
Explanation:
Im not sure if this is correct so sorry if its not.
Firstly, we need to know what a healthy ecosystem is. When an ecosystem is healthy, this would mean that it could supply all the resources that all organisms present in it and with all the resources, there is diversity. Old growth forests are considered healthy because of this reason. These forests remain untouched and had remained in providing the resources needed for the organisms present in it.
Unlike osmotic pressure, tonicity is influenced only by solutes that cannot cross the membrane, as only these exert an effective osmotic pressure. Solutes able to freely cross the membrane do not affect tonicity because they will always equilibrate with equal concentrations on both sides of the membrane without net solvent movement.
