-The number of B cells producing the antibody is proportional to the concentration of that antibody.

-On day 16, one out of  100000 B cells are specific for antigen A
\frac{1}{100000} = 1 x 10⁻⁵ B cells

- on day 16, Antibody concentration is  2 × 10¹= 20 Antibodies
- on day 36, antibody concentration 8 × 10³.= 8000

20 antibodies ------------ 1 x 10⁻⁵ B cells
8000 antibodies--------------x

x= (8000 x 1 x 10⁻⁵)/ 20
x= 4x10⁻³ or 1 in 250 are <span>B cells specific for antigen A</span>

More yeast gives more foam while the use of too many different types of sugars gives less foam.

Fermentation:

It is the process by which organisms break down glucose (sugars) to produce energy in the absence of the oxygen. During the fermentation, many types of by-products are formed such as alcohol, carbon dioxide, and acids.

In fermentation, the bubbles or gases, are produced by yeasts.

  • Here, if the amount of yeast is increased then the number of bubbles or foam will also increase.
  • If too many different types of sugars are used the number of bubbles or gases will decrease because yeast can only digest a certain type of sugars only.

Therefore, more yeast gives more foam while the use of too many different types of sugars gives less foam.
