Why are fermentation tubes evaluated at 24 and 48 hours?
What would happen if an organism used up all the carbohydrate in a fermentation tube?
What would the organism use for energy?
What color would the indicator be then?
To analyze:
Fermentation tubes are evaluated at 24 and 48 hours. If an organism used up all carbohydrate in fermentation tube, then what happens and the organism use for energy and the color the indicator shows.
Introduction:
Fermentation is a process that breakdown large and complex sugar into smaller molecules with the help of bacteria and yeast. This process is used to make beer, alcohol, and fermented drinks.
Explanation of Solution
The process occurs in a lack of oxygen known as the anaerobic process as well as produces a significant amount of ATP. Its product is carbon dioxide, lactic acid, and ethanol. The process is very useful in wine as well as beverage industries.
Beer is the product of fermentation that is consumed as an alcoholic beverage. The flavoring of beers is done with hops that usually add bitterness as well as a natural preservative. Fermentation results in natural carbonation within the beer. It contains around four percent to six percent alcohol.
Fermentation can take place without or with the presence of oxygen as well the incubation periods that are prolonged results in the growth of bacteria oxidatively on peptone immediately after consuming the carbohydrate supplied.
A neutralization reaction will take place when an organism will use all the present carbohydrates. The organism will start using peptone as an energy source. The color of the indicator will turn red.
Thus, Fermentation can take place without or with the presence of oxygen as well as the incubation periods that are prolonged results in the growth of bacteria oxidatively on peptone immediately after consuming the carbohydrate supplied.

- Question #5: Assume that two genes are identified that confer gametophytic facultative apomixis in soybean. The genes show independent assortment. Recessive alleles at both loci are required for the facultative apomixis. Facultative apomixis is triggered when the temperature at pollination is above 20 degrees C. At temperatures below 20 degrees C, all reproduction is sexual, independent of genotype. A facultative apomict male, capable of producing viable pollen, was crossed with a sexually reproducing female. Assuming the parents are completely inbred, what are the predicted phenotypic ratios (apomict: non-apomict) for the F1, F2, and DH (F1-derived) generations at each of the following temperatures*: a) 15°C? b) 25°C? *for full credit, show crosses and genotypes where appropriate. Remember to position the female first (left side) in the cross. Type your answer here:arrow_forwarda. What percentage of a drug is eliminated after 4 half-lives? Please round to the nearest percent. b. What will happen to elimination of the drug in the previous question if the system is saturated? explain and show any math involvedarrow_forwardIf you wanted to reduce the difference between peak and trough levels that occur with repeated administration of a drug, how would you adjust the dose and dose interval without changing the plateau concentration (plateau is the average of peak and trough levels)? Select your answers for both dose and interval. Hint: It may be helpful to think about this problem using an example such as food. How would you eat if you wanted to maintain very steady hunger/satiety levels without changing your total caloric intake? Options: A. Dose; Increase dose B. Dose; Decrease dose C. Dose; Do not change dose D. Interval; Increase the interval between doses (give the drug less frequently) E. Interval; Decrease the interval between doses (give the drug more frequently) F. Interval; Do not change the intervalarrow_forward
