<span>The water plants contain DDT or dichlor-diphenyl-tricloroehane was developed in the 1940s as an insecticide. Because of its availability, it is inexpensive, has a high rate of longevity and can readily be produced that is why it is mostly used as the main ingredient. However, the manufacturing of this product has stopped due to the effects that it has on humans and other organisms. It can accumulate in plants and can destroy fatty tissues in organisms.</span>

alexdok [17]

The phosphodiester bonds of the polynucleotide backbone in DNA would be broken.

The phosphate of one nucleotide is covalently bound to the sugar of the next nucleotide in DNA molecule (or hydroxyl groups in phosphoric acid react with hydroxyl groups on 3' carbon atom of one sugar molecule (deoxyribose) and the 5' carbon atom of another sugar molecule (deoxyribose) to form two ester bonds).

Hydrolysis of phosphodiester bonds is catalyzed by the action of enzymes phosphodiesterases.

In many states, the legal limit for all bacteria present in pasteurized milk is not to exceed 20,000 CFU/mL. You have been away
zaharov [31]

Answer:

a. The formula for finding the number of colonies in a given volume is,  

CFU/ml, here CFU is the colony forming units or the number of colonies formed in a volume plated in ml × dilution

The dilution factor given in the question is 1 × 10⁻⁴ and the number of colonies given is 186. Therefore, the number of bacteria present in the given 1 ml of the milk is,  

CFU/ ml = 186 / 1 × 10⁻⁴ = 186 × 10⁴.  

Hence, the concentration of bacteria in the milk is 186 × 10⁴ CFU/ml.  

b) The limit of the bacterial concentration in the pasteurized milk is 20000 CFU/ml, however, it can be seen that the sample of the milk possess more concentration of bacteria than the desired value. Therefore, the milk is not safe to drink by Public Health Standards.
