First, we need to solve for the common ratio from the data given by using the equation.

a(n) = a(1) r^(n-1)
1024 = 4 r^(9-1)
256 = r^8
r = 256^(1/8)
r = 2

Then, we can find the sum by the expression:

S(n) = a(1) ( 1 - r^n) / 1-r
S(9) = 4 (1 - 2^9) / 1-2
S(9) = 2044

Therefore, the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B.

Identify the characteristics of a cell. Check all that apply. measures 3-500 micrometers infects all forms of living cells grows
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

A cell is defined as the structural and functional unit of an organism.

The average size of the prokaryotic cell lies between 0.1 to 10 micrometers whereas the average size of the eukaryotic cell is approximately 25 micrometers.

Four things are found in all the cells: genetic material (either DNA or RNA), cell membrane, cytoplasm, and the ribosome.

All the living cells grow and reproduce (sexually or asexually) and have the ability to respond to stimuli.

Thus, characteristics of a cell may include: cell grows and reproduces, responds to stimuli, contains DNA or RNA, not both , and contains a cell membrane.

Kipish [7]
There is a lot of calories in fats that can be a good help and can be used for growth, fats are high energy molecules that help in growing organism. Fats produces carbon dioxide, water, and ATP when metabolism.  The sugars and or starch is useful in the same method, they provide calories necessary for a seed or baby animal to grow. The sugars used in glycolysis and then the products of glycolysis used in  the citric acid cycle, and the starch can be cleaved into more manageable sugars.
