Latitudinal gradients of biodiversity are biogeographic patterns that quantify the ways in which taxonomic, phylogenetic, functional, genetic, or phenetic biodiversity change with latitudinal position on the surface of the earth.

A culture of bacteria enters the exponential growth phase with 4,596 cells per mL. After 15 hours, there are 206,104,972 cells p
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

The Growth rate constant (k) will be = 5.16 \times 10^-03  per minute or 0.308  per hour.

Explanation:

Given,

N₀ = 4596 cells / ml

N = 206104972 cells / ml

t = 15 hours

We know that,

                  n = 3.3 \times log  \frac {b}{B}

Where,

n = no. of generation during the period of exponential growth.

∴    n = 3.3 \times log  \frac {b}{B}

       = 3.3 \times log \frac {206104972} {4596}

       = 3.3 × 44844.42

∴   n  = 15.350

We know that,

                 g = \frac {t} {n}

Where,

g =  generation time    

t = duration of exponential growth

∴    g = \frac {t} {n}                             or                ∴    g = \frac {t} {n}

         =  \frac {15 \times 60} {15.350}                                               = 15 / 15.350

          = 900 / 15.350                           ∴  g  = 0.977 hours

∴      g  = 58.63 minutes

We know that,    

               k = 0.301 / g

Where,   k = specific growth rate

∴    k = 0.301 / g                       or                      ∴   k = 0.301 / g  

           = 0.301 / 58.63                                            = 0.301 / 0.977

∴      k   = 5.16 \times 10^-03  per minutes             ∴  k   = 0.308 per hour

Dmitry [639]

Answer: Implantation

Explanation:

The uterus is the main site for the implantation of the embryo. It is the place where the embryo spends 9 months in the mother.

When the male and female gamete combine they form a zygote. It gets implanted in the uterus and then there is cell division and the development of embryo takes place there only.

Any abnormalities in this region will interfere in the process of implantation.

The vegetables, fruits, and cereals that people eat all come from-
34kurt

Answer:

Angiosperms

Explanation:

It states "The flowering plants have a number of uses as food, specifically as grains, sugars, vegetables, fruits, oils, nuts, and spices"

Which is mostly what the question is asking.

Also the other answer choices do not state that they provide vegetables, fruits and cereals as Angiosperms do.
