- What is the published generation time (otherwise known as doubling time) for Escherichia coli? How does the documented time compare to the generation time you calculated from your growth curve with this organism? If significantly different, what factors might have contributed to the difference?arrow_forwardConsidering the second law of thermodynamics, would you expect thetypical biomass of primary producers in an ecosystem to be greaterthan or less than the biomass of secondary producers in the system?Explain your reasoningarrow_forward2 In a temperate grassland ecosystem, total primary production was 12,740 g/m/yr. Annual net secondary production by the herbivorous insect community was 320.5 g/m/yr. Total net tertiary production by spiders was 22.6 g/m/yr. Calculate the trophic efficiency from the first trophic level to the third trophic level.arrow_forward
- 32-33) You conduct a dark-bottle light bottle experiment. The Light Bottle has an initial oxygen concentration of 12 mg/l, and aftera two hour incubation, it has an oxygen concentration of 14 mg/l. The dark bottle also bas an initial oxygen concentration of 12 mg/l, and falls to 6 mg/l aftertwo hours. What is the Net Primary Productivity, expressed as rate of oxygen production? What is Gross Primary Productivity? Make sure to attach proper units here.arrow_forwardsir i have text please make me sure can you solve my problems?arrow_forwardNonearrow_forward
