As part of their research on cellular respiration and metabolism, Ms. Kelly's biology class designed various experiments to determine the best conditions for budding, or asexual reproduction, in common yeast cells. The students added sucrose as a source of food for the yeast and each group added water of a different temperature to the yeast-sugar mix. The students hypothesized that the more the yeast respired and underwent metabolism, the more yeast cells that would undergo budding and produce more yeast cells. One student group graphed their data and it can be seen here. What would be the best way for students to evaluate the number of new yeast cells produced?

Light microscope.

Explanation:

the best way for students to evaluate the number of new yeast cells produced is using the optical microscope, also referred to as a light microscope, is a type of microscope that commonly uses visible/focused light and a system of lenses to generate magnified images of small objects or cells like a telescope except that instead of the object being very small and very close to the lens.

The light microscope is user in visualizing fine details of a micro object

One big advantage of Light microscope is the ability to observe living cells. It is possible to observe a wide range of biological activity, such as the uptake of food, cell division and movement

the median of the data is 4.

step-by-step explanation:

the median means the middle number of a given number.

to decide which one is the median, arrange in ascending or descending order. but sometimes, you may find two(2) number in the middle, but it's easy, just add them together and divide by 2.

so,   determine the median of the data. 2, 3, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9

it is already arranged, count 3 times forward and 3 backward and the one left is your answer.

2,3,3,4,5,7,9

our answer is 4.

hope this !

using the scientific method.
