A student placed a disk of filter paper in each of the following solutions: disinfectant 1, disinfectant 2, disinfectant 3, and

distilled water. While the four disks were soaking in their respective solutions, she streaked a sterile nutrient agar dish with a culture of E. coli bacteria. Then, she placed each disk carefully onto the nutrient agar dish, placed the lid on the dish, taped it shut, and incubated the dish at 37°C for several days. The diagram shows how the nutrient agar dish looked on Day 1 and Day 4. The shaded portion of the plate on day 4 indicates the bacterial growth. Look at the dishes in the diagram. Which disinfectant was the most effective at controlling the growth of E. coli?

<span>The disinfectant that was the most effective at controlling the growth of E. coli is disinfectant 2 because of the least number of Ecoli strains found on the dish compared to the other disinfectants. Also dish 4 that cointains water has the most number of Ecoli strains because water is not a disinfectant and Acoi do not die in water alone.</span>

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

The frequency would be stable.

Explanation:

Based on the most common symptoms of cystic fibrosis, the disease only appears on adults and elderly. This feature means that the frequency of the disease would not drop or raise because they would still reproduce and pass the allele from generation to the next, maintaining the frequency stable.

Ovarian follicles cells produce estrogen, which is a steroid. What organelle will be present in abundance so that the follicles
zloy xaker [14]

The steroids are produced by the Smooth endoplasmic reticulum.

The cells, which are involved in the secretion of the steroid molecules have an abundant number of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum, which is abbrevated as SER.

The cells present in the ovary and the testis have a large number of smooth endoplasmic reticulum. The abundant number of smoothe endoplasmic reticulum allow them to produce a large amount of steroid molecule to produce the steroid hormones estrogen and testosterone.

Hence, in this case, the ovarian cells would have a large number of SER.

3. Runoff comes straight from precipitation. Infiltration is from the ground while run off never went in the ground.

4. It will usually end up in the same place, the ocean

5. Water levels rise, temperatures rise, CO2 in atmosphere increases

1. Carbon is important because it is one of the basic building blocks of life.

2. Trees, animals, grass, decomposition, combustion, fossil fuels

3. Carbon enters as photosynthesis.

4. Carbon enters water to the soil decomposition. Aquatic plants have plenty of water to work with, so their main challenge is getting enough sunlight and air.

6. By breathing in the oxygen from plants.

7. Two ways carbon return from animals into water is through cellular respiration and decomposition.

8. Combustion is when we dig up the fossil fuel and burn it, then what is left goes into the air starting the cycle again.

9. Deforestation reduces the capacity of forests to be carbon sinks.


Nitrogen Cycle:

1. Nitrogen is important because it helps us grow crops, and it produces grass for animal.

2. It comes from lightning and is named nitrogen fixation.

3. Ammonification and then transitions into nitrification and then to assimilation.


Phosphorus Cycle:

1. It forms part of life sustaining molecules like DNA and RNA.

2. Phosphorus is never found in the atmosphere.

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

Oxygen.

Explanation:

Oxygen molecule that is produced in the light dependent reactions. This shutting down of linear electron flow greatly affected the production of oxygen. Photosystem II gains replacement electrons from splitting of water molecules into hydrogen ions (H+) and oxygen atoms so if the electron flow is disturbed then oxygen production is greatly affected.
