Answer:
The original water sample contains 830,000 cells per milliliter.
Explanation:
A sample of well water is tested for its bacterial content in a plate count assay. A one-milliliter sample of the water is diluted in a 1:10 dilution series. One milliliter of the fourth dilution tube is plated in a pour plate. After incubation, the plate has 83 colonies, indicating that the original water sample contained 830,000 cells per milliliter.
Answer:
a. 0.03054 b. 0.000032 c. sorry I am not perfect
Explanation:
- a. In the number 0.03054 , you need to move the decimal point two places to the right to get to 3.054 (which is between 1 and 10). Since you moved the decimal point two places to the right, you must indicate it by saying that you multiplied 3.054 by 10−2 . Think about it: 3.054×10−2=0.03054 .
- b. Answer: 0.0000302 Step-by-step explanation: When 10 is to the power of a negative number, "move" the decimal dot left. 10⁻⁵ means to "move" the decimal 5 times to the left. 1. Write a bunch of extra 0's for the coefficient. (The coefficient is 3.02). 0000003 . 02 2. Count 5 place values over. 00←0←0←0←0←3 . 02 3. Put the decimal behind the digit. 00 . 0000302 4. Get rid of the 0s that you don't need. You only need one 0 left of the decimal. 0.0000302 <= Final answer
- c. sorry but I am not perfect at this
-binds to DNA during transcription and separates the DNA strands
-then uses one strand of DNA as a template from which to assemble nucleotides into a complementary strand of RNA. Hope this helped. ;)
