Assume you inoculated 100 cells, with a generation time of 20 minutes, into 100 ml of nutrient broth. You then inoculated 100 cells of the same species into 200 ml of nutrient broth. After incubation for 4 hours, you can reasonably expect to have .
A) the same number of cells in both. B) more cells in the 100 ml. C) more cells in the 200 ml. D) The answer cannot be determined based on the information provided.

The correct answer is option A) "the same number of cells in both".

Explanation:

The volume of nutrient broth in two different cell cultures is not a variable that would affect the number of cells that are produced. The only way that this could be a factor would be if the cell number is high enough that the nutrients could be depleted. However, in this case where 100 cells with a generation time of 20 minutes are inoculated and the incubation time was of only 4 hours, the volume of nutrient broth is not a factor that would affect them.

q: compare the parts of a cell and the cell as a whole to another common nonliving system (i.e., a car, a city,

a:

comparing this to the inside of a food building/company.

all cells are surrounded by a plasma membrane, which protects the cell from its environment, keeping toxic substances out of the cell. it regulates which molecules are allowed to enter and exit the cell.

regulates all cell activity such as cellular metabolism, and growth in addition to storing and maintaining the cell's dna for transcription and replication. determines what proteins to make.

contains the organelles; site of most cell activity

the place where ribosomes do their working activity.

builds the proteins.

prepares proteins for use or export.

responsible for breaking down and absorbing materials taken in by the cell.

maintains cell shape.

transforms one form of energy into another.

because the light is a great source of energy for the plants to survive. (i hope this )
