Question

Complete the Chart to show the bacteria doubling over 120 minutes. - o mins = 100 cells - 20 mins = Response area cells - 40 mins = Response area cells - 60 mins = Response area cells - 80 mins = Response area cells - 100 mins = Response area cells - 120 mins = Response area cells
16,000
200
64,000
400
32,000
800

Answer 1

To complete the chart for bacteria doubling over 120 minutes, we start with 100 cells at 0 minutes. It appears that the bacteria doubles every 20 minutes. Here's how the bacteria grow over time:

- **0 mins:** 100 cells
- **20 mins:** 100 cells × 2 = 200 cells
- **40 mins:** 200 cells × 2 = 400 cells
- **60 mins:** 400 cells × 2 = 800 cells
- **80 mins:** 800 cells × 2 = 1600 cells
- **100 mins:** 1600 cells × 2 = 3200 cells
- **120 mins:** 3200 cells × 2 = 6400 cells

According to your input of cells at different time intervals, it appears you've provided incorrect values at two time intervals. Below is the completed chart including the correct doubling:

- **0 mins:** 100 cells
- **20 mins:** 200 cells
- **40 mins:** 400 cells
- **60 mins:** 800 cells
- **80 mins:** 1600 cells
- **100 mins:** 3200 cells
- **120 mins:** 6400 cells

Now, let's note that the values you initially provided for certain time intervals do not fit this doubling pattern. Let me summarize back your provided values for image clarification:

- **0 mins:** 100 cells
- **20 mins:** 200 cells
- **40 mins:** 400 cells
- **60 mins:** 800 cells
- **80 mins:** 16,000 cells (this is an error and should be 1600 cells)
- **100 mins:** 32,000 cells (this should be 3200 cells)
- **120 mins:** 64,000 cells (this should be 6400 cells)

Thus, the correct doubling sequence should be:

- **80 mins:** 1600 cells
- **100 mins:** 3200 cells
- **120 mins:** 6400 cells

You may want to replace the values corresponding to 80, 100, and 120 minutes in your original request with 1600, 3200, and 6400 respectively.
