Answer:
time; point
Explanation:
The complete question is as follows:
The shortest length of time required to kill all test microbes at a specified temperature is the thermal death __________ whereas the lowest temperature required to kill all microbes in a sample within 10 minutes is the thermal death _________.
time; point
window; point
point; time
time; temperature
- When a population of bacteria gets killed due to exposure to high temperatures then this is termed as thermal death.
- The time taken to kill a specific microbe at a specific temperature is termed as the thermal death time. The length of the time taken depends on the nature of the target microbe and hence, varies from one to another.
- The lowest temperature that will kill all the microbes in a sample within ten minutes is defined as the thermal death point. The temperature at which the microbes get killed within 10 minutes also varies from one microbe to another.
- Thermal death results in the disruption of the cell membranes of the microbes and hence can kill the microbes.
The answer is : exponentially
Answer:
Forests store large amounts of carbon. When fossil fuels are burned, carbon from dead and decayed plants, animals and phytoplankton that lived hundreds of millions of years ago (before dinosaurs existed), is released into the atmosphere in the form of carbon dioxide. .
