Light-independent reactions (dark reactions). Light reactions need light to produce organic energy molecules. Dark reactions make use of these organic energy molecules.
Answer:
From what I remember in my 9th grade biology class, it's usually half that amount.
Answer:
The correct answer is 4,960,000
Explanation:
If a yeast cell divides into two yeast cells in 120 minutes that means a yeast cell needs 2 hours to get double. So according to the question 2 hours ago a yeast colony consisted of 310,000 cells that means the present colony should have 620,000 cells.
So after six hours from now, this population will divide three times in six hours because the generation time of yeast cell is 2 hour and each time the number of cells will double.
Therefore, in first time the number will increase to 1,240,000(620000*2), the second time the number will increase to 2,480,000(1240000*2) and after final division, the number will be 4,960,000(2480000*2).
Therefore after 6 hours from now, the approximate number of yeast cells will be 4,960,000.
They could improve the experiment that they made by adding another variable such as: watering the plants with fresh water. This way they could have a better comparison how plants grow based on the type of water they are exposed with.
