A scientist places 25 mg of bacteria in a culture for an experiment and he finds that the mass of the bacteria triples every day

. The mass of the bacteria in the culture on any given day is what percent of the mass of bacteria in the culture exactly one day prior

Answer:

300%

Explanation:

The mass of the bacterial culture is triples everyday, meaning that after one day the culture will have 300% of the mass as the culture one day prior.

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Under anaerobic conditions, such as intense exercise, pyruvate is converted to <u>lactate.</u> This 3-carbon molecule travels through the blood to the liver, where it can be converted to glucose by the <u>cori cycle.</u>

Under aerobic  conditions, pyruvate enters the mitochondrion, where it is converted to <u>acetyle CoA . </u>This 2-carbon molecule goes on to participate in a series of oxidative reactions called the <u>Citric acid cycle.</u>

Explanation:

In the question ,among the given 6 options ,the simplest way to find the answer can be ,to find either the option is aerobic (presence of free oxygen ) or anaerobic (lack of  free oxygen). Among the options , glucose is an incorrect option as it is a carbohydrate and used in respiration process .In aerobic process ,the glucose can be break down but in anaerobic ,it can only be used.

Other option is ATP- ATP is the energy source of the cell and used for storing energy or reactions of the cell,thus this option do not belong to the given question.

thus its clear the rest four options are the answer .

among four two options belong to aerobic and the rest two are anaerobic.

<u>Under anaerobic conditions-</u>

The pyruvate is converted into lactate because under the absence of oxygen only the NAD+ can be regenerated, thus further can allow glycolysis.

The cori cycle is also called lactic acidic cycle, thus this cycle is a metabollic pathway produced by anaerobic glycolysis (which takes place by regeneration of NAD+)transporting the molecules from blood to liver and  further converting to glucose

<u>Under aerobic conditions,-</u>

The pyruvate is converted into <u>Acetyle CoA </u>so as to further produce <u>citric acid  </u>and then citric acidic cycle. Thus Acetyle CoA forms more ATP which help in the regeneration of NAD+ and production of citric acid cycle takes place.

<em>HENCE , The correct options are - </em><u>lactate </u>  <u>cori </u>  <u>acetyle CoA </u>  <u>citric acid.</u>

Olenka [21]

This membrane mimics the plasma membrane that is around animal cells. In order to explore how water moves in and out of a cell, one cell was weighed and then submerged in hypertonic solution. The other egg was weighted and submerged in hypotonic solution. It was predicted that the egg submerged in hypertonic solution  would decrease in mass. It was predicted that the egg submerged in hypotonic solution would increase in mass.

Explanation:

The outermost covering of an animal cell is the plasma membrane. It is a selectively permeable membrane that allows only selective molecules to pass through it.

A solution having higher concentration of solute than the cell cytoplasm is called a hypertonic solution.

A solution having lower concentration of solute than the cell cytoplasm is called the  hypotonic solution.

The movement of water molecules from the region of its higher concentration to the region of its lower concentration through a semipermeable membrane is called osmosis.

A cell placed in hypertonic solution will undergo exosmosis so it will lose water and its mass will decrease.

A cell placed in hypotonic solution  will undergo endosmosis of water  so it will gain water and its mass will increase.

What does the endosymbiotic theory explain
sattari [20]
The endosymbiotic theory states that some of the organelles in eukaryotic cells were once prokaryotic microbes. Mitochondria and chloroplasts are the same size as prokaryotic cells and divide by binary fission.

An obligate anaerobe is an organism that would die in an oxygenated environment. What could be assumed about these organisms?
makkiz [27]
The correct option is C.
Obligate anaerobes are micro organisms that are poisoned and killed when exposed to the normal atmospheric oxygen concentration. These organisms can only survive in the absences of oxygen, therefore, they carry out only anaerobic form of respiration in order to obtain the energy that they need. <span />

What is tetracycline?~<br><br>ty​
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

Tetracycline is used to treat infections caused by bacteria including pneumonia and other respiratory tract infections; ; certain infections of skin, eye, lymphatic, intestinal, genital and urinary systems; and certain other infections that are spread by ticks, lice, mites, and infected animals.

Tetracyclines (tetracycline, doxycycline, minocycline, tigecycline) are a class of medication used to manage and treat various bacterial infections. Tetracyclines classify as protein synthesis inhibitor antibiotics and are considered to be broad-spectrum.
