Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

Options for the question

A)import seeds produced in the southern hemisphere.

B)plant the flowers out-of doors in november.

C)keep the plants in a warm growing environment.

D)expose the plants to an hour of light in the middle of each night until the end of april.

Solution

Since Chrysanthemum is a short-day plant, its flower mainly develop during night and hence they require long nights of 11 to 12 hours. Blackout system is sometimes used to induce flowering.Flowering can be delayed by regulating both light and temperature. this is done by exposing plants for a short period of time to light (can be artificial) and to some source of heat that produces 85° F or higher temperature.  

Thus if flowers are required in month of may, flowering can be delayed by exposing Chrysanthemums plant to light and heat source during night time

Option D is correct

What are the ranges of colonies counts that are acceptable on a plate for a spread plate and pour plate? Why are they different?
enot [183]

Each (both large and small) colony is carefully counted (using magnifying colony counter if needed). Each colony represents a “colony-forming unit” (CFU). For accurate counts, the optimum count should be within the range of 30-300 colonies/plate. To insure a countable plate a series of dilutions should be plated.

How many trophic levels do most food webs have? Why? Relate your answer to the appropriate law of thermodynamics
Anton [14]

Answer:

Most food webs have between 4 and 5 trophic levels

Explanation:

Energy flow: From the whole quantity of energy that reaches the earth's surface, autotroph organisms or producers only absorb 0.1 or 1%.

From the input of solar energy begins a unidirectional energy flow. It passes through all the organisms in the ecosystem, from autotrophs to heterotrophs, until it is eventually dissipated in the environment.  

There is an energy transfer from each trophic level to the next, and each level only uses 10% of this energy. This assessment is called "The 10% rule". As a general rule, only about 10% of the energy stored as biomass at one trophic level, per unit time, ends up as biomass at the next trophic level, in the same unit of time. The rest of the energy is used by the organisms in their own metabolism or dissipated as heat to the environment.

The progressive reduction of energy determines the number of trophic levels, which, in general, turns to be between 4 and 5.
