A sample from a stock of a bacterial colony in liquid media was diluted by a factor of 106, and 2 ml of this dilution was spread on a Petri dish of solidified media. 56 colonies were observed. What was the concentration of bacteria of the initial stock?
Answer:
28 × 10⁶ colonies/ml
Explanation:
Let C be the concentration of bacterial in the initial stock. When it is diluted by a factor of 10⁶, the new concentration is C' = C/10⁶.
When 2 ml of this concentration is spread on a Petri dish of solidified media, 56 colonies were produced. The number of colonies, n after spreading the 2 ml of C' is C' × 2 ml = 2C' = 2C/10⁶.
So, n = 2C/10⁶.
Since the number of colonies after spreading on a Petri dish of solidified media is 56, n = 56 colonies.
So, 2C/10⁶ = 56
Making C subject of the formula, we have
C = 56 × 10⁶/2
C = 28 × 10⁶ colonies/ml
So, the initial concentration of bacteria is 28 × 10⁶ colonies/ml

geosphere burying organisms
hydrosphere respiration of marine life
biosphere photosynthesis atmosphere burning things
Answer:
This question is incomplete, the question is asking to match each activity with the sphere to which it adds carbon or CO2.
ANSWERS:
Geosphere = burying organisms
hydrosphere = respiration of marine life
biosphere = photosynthesis atmosphere = burning things
Explanation:
This question describes the types of spheres we have. The respective activities that occur in each sphere that adds CO2 or carbon are as follows:
- Geosphere: This refers to the solid part of the Earth. Dead organisms are buried in the geosphere (soil) where their carbon remains can be deposited.
- Hydrosphere: This constitutes all of the water bodies (sea, river, stream, ocean) on the Earth. When marine organisms respire in water, carbon dioxide (CO2) is released.
- Biosphere: A sphere consisting of all living things (plant, animal, microbes etc.) on Earth. Plants as a living organisms photosynthesize and make use of carbon dioxide to produce glucose, which stores in the plant.
Atmosphere: The gaseous component of the Earth. Burning substances release carbon based gases into the atmosphere.

For each of the following structures, first indicate its function in the fetus; then, note its fate (what happens to it or what it is converted to after birth).
a. Umbilical artery
b. Umbilical vein
c. Ductus venosus
d. Ductus arterious
e. Foramen ovale
Answer:
1. Functions:
a. Umbilical artery >> carries deoxygenated blood from the fetus to the placenta
b. Umbilical vein >> transports oxygenated blood from the placenta to the fetus
c. Ductus venosus >> allows oxygenated blood from the placenta to bypass the liver
d. Ductus arterious >> allows most of the blood from the right ventricle to bypass the fetus's non-functioning lungs
e. Foramen ovale >> oxygenated blood from the umbilical vein to bypass the pulmonary circulation
2. After the bird:
1. Umbilical artery >> medial umbilical ligament
2. Umbilical vein >> round ligament of the liver
3. Ductus venosus >> ligamentum venosum
4. Ductus arteriosus >> ligamentum arteriosum
5. Foramen ovale >> fossa ovalis
Explanation:
The umbilical artery is a paired artery localized in the abdominal and pelvic regions, which carries deoxygenated blood from the fetus to the placenta through the umbilical cord. The medial umbilical ligament is the obliterated part of the umbilical artery that arises from the internal iliac arteries. In utero, the umbilical arteries carry waste products back to the placenta, whereas the umbilical vein carries oxygenated blood from the placenta to the fetus. The round ligament of the liver (also known as ligamentum teres hepatis) is a remnant of the umbilical vein that exists in the embryonic stage, it connects the left lobe of the liver to the umbilicus. The ductus venosus is a slender shunt that allows oxygenated blood from the placenta to bypass the liver, it connects the intra-hepatic portion of the umbilical vein to the inferior vena cava. The ligamentum venosum is an extrahepatic, slender, and fibrous remnant of the fetal ductus venosus that travels between the left portal vein and the inferior vena cava. The ductus arteriosus is a fetal artery that connects the aorta to the pulmonary artery. The ligamentum arteriosum is a nonfunctional vestige of the ductus arteriosus, it is attached to the superior surface of the pulmonary trunk. The foramen ovale is an oval-shaped, small, opening in the wall (septum) between the two upper chambers of the heart. The fossa ovalis is a vestige stricture of the foramen ovale of the embryonic heart, which forms a depression in the right atrium of the heart.
Lymph ______ are found throughout the body and are a signal of a disease, infection, or problem if they become and remain swollen for long periods of time.
______ are pathogens that cannot be killed with antibiotics because they are non-living. They take over cellular organelles to replicate and spread.
Because they are also eukaryotes with their own cell membranes and membrane-bound organelles, ______ are often difficult to combat with medicines.
A cell signal called ______ is produced by mast cells. These molecules cause more fluid to spread to an infected area.
_______ are the types of cells that produce antibodies.
All pathogens have unique identifying molecules on their surfaces called ______. Antibodies bind to these, and targeting the pathogen to be destroyed by the immune system.
______ is a non-specific response to disease, in which the body temperature rises
Answer:
nodes
Viruses
fungi
histamine
B-cells
antigens
Fever
When a paper cut breaks the skin, it introduces outside microorganisms into the cut. The body recognizes the break in the skin. Mast cells produce histamines, which cause more blood and lymph fluid to flow to the wound. This increased flow brings phagocytic white blood cells to the area, which destroy invading organisms until the blood can clot and the skin can heal over the cut, preventing more organisms from entering the body. If a cut is too deep or too wide, special care such as stitches and antibiotics could be needed to prevent infection.

The second generation of purebred cross of -hom-ozygo us recessive organism, with a —hom-ozygous dominant organism, contain a ratio of approximately _______ expressed dominant traits to recessive traits.
A. 2:1
B. 1:1
C. 1:3
D. 3:1
Answer:
D. 3:1
Explanation:
Gregor Mendel, in one of his numerous studies, performed a cross between purebred dominant (TT) pea plants and purebred recessive (tt) pea plants. All the offsprings of this cross appeared heterozygous tall (Tt) in the F1 generation.
However, when he self-crossed the F1 generation i.e. Tt × Tt, Mendel obtained a phenotypic ratio of 3 tall plants (dominant traits) : 1 short plant (recessive). This showed that the masked gene (recessive) was still present.

Answer:
This question lacks options, options are:
A) glial cell
B) interneuron
C) sensory neuron
D) motor neuron.
The correct answer is D.
Explanation:
The brain sends instructions to the muscles that control voluntary movement through nerve cells called motor neurons. The function of the motor neuron is basically to carry the information that comes from the descending pathways of the spinal cord, in order to generate an activation in the tissues of the skeletal and visceral muscles of all parts of the body. Motor neurons need the information sent to them by sensory or efferent neurons. Since in order to perform the appropriate muscle movements for the situation, our brain must receive information from the outside. By sending sensory stimulation through interoreceptors, motor neurons can regulate visceral activity, stimulating or inhibiting the activity of their effector tissues. In this way, our nervous system integrates the information from both types of neurons and allows us to move and react according to the demands and circumstances of our external context.

The data table and the cladogram below provide information about the evolutionary history of several different species of animal. Using this information, which of the following is true of trout?
They are more closely related to salamanders than they are to birds.
They are more evolved than salamanders and lizards.
They evolved into a separate species due to the presence of lungs.
They have jaws and lungs but lack claws or nails, feathers, and mammary glands.
Answer:
They are more closely related to salamanders than they are to birds.
Explanation:
According to the data, trout are more closely related to salamanders than birds.
The first data table shows how the salamander only has one extra trait that the trout does not have (lungs).
On the other hand, birds have three extra traits that the trout doesn't have (claws/nails, feathers, and lungs).
The cladogram further shows how trout are more closely related to salamanders compared to birds.
Trout and the salamander are closer together on the cladogram, while the bird is further away. This means they are more related on the evolutionary timeline.
So, the correct answer is that They are more closely related to salamanders than they are to birds.
The statement which is true about Trout is as follows:
They are more closely related to salamanders than they are to birds.Thus, the correct option is A.
What is Cladogram?A Cladogram may be defined as a type of family tree or classification tree which is based on evolutionary relationships. It is also known as a phylogenetic tree.
Trout and the salamander are positioned closer to one another on the cladogram while the bird is being far away. The presence of lungs is marked from the salamander, so trout do not have lungs.
Trouts evolved from Hagfish but not from salamanders and lizards. Trouts only have jaws but lungs, claws or nails, feathers, and mammary glands.
Therefore, the correct option for this question is A.

Answer:
1) CO₂
2) 0.2551 g
Explanation:
The balanced reactions are:
CaCO₃ + 2HCl → CaCl₂ + H₂O + CO₂
MgCO₃ + 2HCl → MgCl₂ + H₂O + CO₂
1) The gas produced is CO₂.
2) Calculate mass of CaCO₃:
(0.5236 g) (0.4230) = 0.2215 g CaCO₃
Convert to moles:
(0.2215 g CaCO₃) (1 mol / 100.1 g) = 0.002213 mol CaCO₃
Find moles of CaCO₃:
(0.002213 mol CaCO₃) (1 mol CO₂ / mol CaCO₃) = 0.002213 mol CO₂
Convert to mass:
(0.002213 mol CO₂) (44.01 g / mol) = 0.09738 g CO₂
Calculate mass of MgCO₃:
(0.5236 g) (0.5770) = 0.3021 g MgCO₃
Convert to moles:
(0.3021 g MgCO₃) (1 mol / 84.31 g) = 0.003583 mol MgCO₃
Find moles of MgCO₃:
(0.003583 mol MgCO₃) (1 mol CO₂ / mol MgCO₃) = 0.003583 mol CO₂
Convert to mass:
(0.003583 mol CO₂) (44.01 g / mol) = 0.1577 g CO₂
Total mass of CO₂:
0.09738 g CO₂ + 0.1577 g CO₂ = 0.2551 g CO₂
Answer:
The average kinetic energy of the gas particles is greater in container B because its particles move faster.

The phenotypic ratio of the cross is as follows: 3 red antennas: 1 white antenna
For question 2, the phenotypic ratio of the F2 generation is: 3 black-eyed: 1 orange-eyed
QUESTION 1
According to the first question, a gene coding for antenna color in butterflies is involved. Red antennas (“R”) is dominant to white antennas (“r”). Hence, a butterfly with genotype "Rr" will be phenotypically red.
According to this question, If both parents are heterozygous for red antennas i.e. Rr (red antenna) × Rr (red antenna), the following gametes will be produced: R and r. Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following phenotypic ratio of offspring is produced:
3 RED ANTENNAS (RR, Rr, Rr) : 1 WHITE ANTENNA (rr)
2. In the second question, all the offspring of a cross between a black-eyed mendelien (BB) and an orange-eyed mendelien (bb) have black eyes (Bb). In a cross between two F1 black-eyed mendeliens i.e. Bb × Bb, the following proportion of offspring is produced:
BB, Bb, Bb, bb
Hence, a phenotypic ratio of 3 black-eyed: 1 orange-eyed
