cold fusion
in 1989, two scientists from the university of utah announced to the scientific
community that they had developed nuclear fusion using a method called cold
fusion this was a very important discovery in science as it would mean that a
inexpensive, environmentally safe unlimited source of energy would become
available to the world. within five weeks of their presentation, the scientific
community rejected the scientists work, and cold fusion did not become the answer
to providing energy they had hoped it would
predict the reason the scientific community rejected the idea of cold fusion?
a. other scientists were tried to contact them and they would not answer,
b. cold fusion was a topic that was cited frequently among the scientific community.
c. scientists in the community were unable to replicate the experiment with the same
methods and obtain the same results.
d.
the original scientists were unable to attend a science community meeting involving cold
fusion to explain their evidence.

Sampling lake water for microscopic organisms is not as easy as it sounds when you want to both count and identify species. in a given water sample, your bacteria of choice can be rare or difficult to culture, particularly given the mixture of bacteria in a biofilm. which of the following culture media would be best for growing fecal coliforms when they are relatively less abundant than other bacteria in the lake? anaerobic culture medium enrichment culture medium complex culture medium basic culture medium

Scenario 5 1) take 10 red and 10 black beans and place them, mixed, on the table. record the starting phenotype # and frequencies (% of your total population) of your starting population in the table provided (generation 0). 2) act as a predator. “capture” as many organisms as you can until you have reduced the population to three organisms. put them aside. at this point, the predators die. 3) the remaining organisms each produce 2 clonal offspring. multiply your organisms accordingly and allow them to mix on the table. calculate and record the resultant phenotype # and frequencies (% of your total population) of your population in the table provided (generation 1). 4) repeat the reproduction event, allowing each of your organisms to produce 2 clonal offspring. calculate and record the resultant phenotype # and frequencies (% of your total population) of your population in the table provided (generation 2). 5) repeat the reproduction event, allowing each of your organisms to produce 2 clonal offspring. calculate and record the resultant phenotype # and frequencies (% of your total population) of your population in the table provided (generation 3).
