It will take <u>120 minutes</u> for the concentration to become > 15000 cells/cm³

<u>Given data:</u>

Initial concentration ( density ) = 1000 cells / cm³

Target/final concentration = > 15,000 cells /cm³

<h3 /><h3>Calculating the concentration every 30 minutes </h3><h3 />

<em>note</em><em> : Given that each cell divides every 30 minutes </em>

  • <u>After the first 30 minutes </u>

Concentration = 2000 cells / cm³

  • <u>After 60 minutes </u>

concentration = 4000 cells / cm³

  • <u>After 90 minutes </u>

concentration = 8000 cells / cm³

  • <u>After 120 minutes </u>

concentration = 16000 cells / cm³

Therefore after 120 minutes the concentration of the cells will be greater than 15000 cells/cm³ ( i.e. 16000 cells/cm³ )

How does your brain alter sensory information?
svlad2 [7]

Answer;

-Our brains fill in gaps in our perception.

-If its been a long time since an event occurred, we might imagine things that did not happen.

Explanation;

-One way that our brain may alter sensory information is by filling in information that is not really there. For example a word in a sentence could have a missing word but we probably assume that word is there and keep reading the sentence.

-Another way is applying already known stuff into new situations. For example we have learned that if a dessert is pink, then it is strawberry flavored. If we saw a bowl of vanilla ice cream with pink food coloring, we may assume it's strawberry ice cream.
