When you scrape your original sample onto your agar plate, you cannot see how much single bacteria or where the individual bacteria is on your plate- since it's invisible to the naked eye. But when the bacteria start to multiply, you start to see the individual colonies. (from the single bacteria, it begins to multiply within 20 min. maybe after 1-2 days you'll see a colony, meaning there are millions of bacteria)
for example, if you take a water sample and spray it onto an agar plate, you won't know which parts of the agar plate the bacteria landed on. however, when they start to multiply from a single bacterium, you'll see where each starting bacterium was because now you can see a whole bunch of bacteria. (remember that a colony contains millions of bacteria- which allow it to be visible to the naked eye).
so you count the number of colonies, and that'll tell you how much bacteria you started with. if you look at the size of the colonies, you're only looking at how long you allowed the bacteria to incubate (since from the single bacteria that you started with, it's only multiplying and growing outwards).
Speed = distance / time = (420 x 1000) / (6 x 3600) = 19.44 m/s
D i believe is the answer
Answer:
Translocation
Explanation:
Changes occur to the nuclear material from time to time. These changes are referred to as MUTATIONS. A mutation is a change in the nucleotide sequence of a gene. Mutations are of different types depending on how it occurs.
According to this question, the kind of mutation/abberation described is TRANSLOCATION. Translocation is a kind of chromosomal abnormality in which one segement of a chromosome containing certain genes breaks off and reattaches to a different chromosome.
This is the case in this question regarding the genetic composition of corns where genes for waxy and virescent kernel appearance occur in the same chromosome. It was found out that, in a stock of corn, these two genes are now on different chromosomes. This means that a segment of the chromosome containing one of the genes broke off and got reattached to a different chromosome. Hence, TRANSLOCATION MUTATION has occurred in this stock of corn.
