Answer:

-During citric acid cycle or Krebs cycle, radioactive carbon will be first appear in citric acid

Explanation:

During cellular respiration, glucose is first converted into pyruvate molecules by the process of glycolysis. These pyruvate molecules go for oxidative decarboxylation, during which acetyl co-enzyme A (acetyl CoA) is formed along with removal of carbon dioxide.

The acetyl co-enzyme enters to the next step in cellular respiration or citric acid cycle or Krebs cycle. The first step of citric acid cycle is formation of citric acid by joining of acetyl CoA and oxaloacetate.

As citric acid is first molecule formed during citric acid cycle, radioactive carbon would be first appear in citric acid.

What type of weathering can be considered the "rusting" of rock?
In-s [12.5K]
Hello,

Chemical weathering can be considered by the "rusting of rock". 

Weathering can be described of the breaking down of rocks and other materials on the Earth's surface. There are three types of weathering: mechanical, chemical, and biological. Mechanical weathering is the type of weathering in which rock is physically broken into smaller pieces. Chemical weathering is the type  of weathering in which chemical changes break down rock. Biological weathering is the type of weathering in which animal, plant, and microbes means weaken and or disintegrate rock.

12In an experiment, a petri dish with a colony of bacteria is exposed to cold temperatures and then warmed again.
klemol [59]
<span>Let the equation be : at^2 + bt + c = P,
where t = time (hrs),
P = population (1000's).
 When t = 1, P = 3.03.
When t = 2, P = 1.72.
When t = 3, P = 1.17.
 Substitute these into the equation to obtain these 3 simultaneous equations : a + b + c = 3.03
4a + 2b + c = 1.72
9a + 3b = c = 1.17
 
Solving gives :
a = 0.38,
b = -2.45,
c = 5.1.
 
The equation is therefore,
P = 0.38t^2 - 2.45t + 5.1
 Testing with t = 0 to 6 gives the population values as provided, so it seems to be a valid model.
 At t = 9 hrs,
P = 0.38*9^2 - 2.45*9 + 5.1
   = 13.83.</span>
