Biology

Answer:

B) CFU/mL calculations would not be accurate

Explanation:

In microbiology CFU is the acronym for Colony Forming Unit, which indicates the number of bacteria or fungi capable of multiplying under suitable conditions. In this case, CFU/mL indicates how much bacterial or fungal cells, susceptible to reproduction, exist within 1 mL of a culture solution.

When this solution is used, to make a dilution or other laboratory activity, it is important that it be resuspended, that is, mixed, as the bacteria or fungus cells can accumulate in the bottom or surface of the substance, changing the value of CFU/mL and causing inaccurate dilutions if used. When resuspended, the substance presents the appropriate value of CFU/mL, ensuring that the dilution is accurate and effective.

slega [8]

The Light Reactions of Photosynthesis. Light is absorbed and the energy is used to drive electrons from water to generate NADPH and to drive protons across a membrane. These protons return through ATP synthase to make ATP.

<u>What is the end product of light reaction in photosynthesis?</u>

The energy from sunlight is converted into a small amount of ATP and an energy carrier called NADPH. Together with carbon dioxide, these are used to make glucose (sugar) through a process called the Calvin Cycle. This is the things happening during light reaction of photosynthesis .

How can irradiation solve a societal problem?
ivanzaharov [21]
One example of irradiation solving a societal problem might be the way in which it is able to prevent diseases in food. Using small amount of radiation, the bacteria and insects that would otherwise be carrying harmful bacteria can be killed. This will solve a societal problem, in that food wastage and illness due to food poisoning in poverty-stricken areas are massive problems faced in our society.
