Suppose 1000 bacteria are inoculated in minimal salts medium (MSM), where they double once per hour, while 10 bacteria inoculated into a rich medium double every 20 minutes. Determine and compare the specific growth rate (k) for these two cultures.

Witch type of microscope is used to view very small cell components like proteins and dna?

Which statement about dna replication is true? a. eukaryotes only have one circular chromosome that unwinds at multiple locations. b. eukaryotes can only replicate one segment of a chromosome at a time. c. prokaryotes can only replicate their single circular chromosome in the nucleus. d. prokaryotes only have one origin of replication to initiate replication.

In the practice of science, this type of reasoning is used to develop explanations.
