A particular species of bacteria has a "a generation time" of 20 minutes. That is, every 20 minutes a single bacterium completes prokaryotic fission -- one bacterium is now two bacterial cells. This morning at 6:00 a. m. you made a sandwich and packed your lunchbox. What you were not aware of was that there were 10 bacteria cells of this species on the dollop of mayonnaise that you spread across your bread. At 12:00 p. m. (no on) You sit down and eat your entire sandwich! How many bacteria cells did you have for lunch? (Hint: use the formula 2axb x C = numbers of cells, where "a" - number of times per hour the bacteria reproduces, "5" the number of hours the bacteria had to reproduce, and "C" = the number of bacteria at the start).​

Bisphenol a (often called bpa) is a chemical found in products that people use every day, from water bottles to food containers to children's toys. unfortunately, bpa leaches out of its many products and makes its way into our bodies. what are the health effects of bpa exposure? ongoing research is finding that elevated exposure to bpa can affect a wide variety of developmental and physiological processes, but one of the first studies of bpa's health effects came about because of a simple mistake in the lab. at a laboratory at case western reserve university in 1998, geneticist patricia hunt was making a routine check of her female lab mice. as she extracted and examined developing eggs from the ovaries, she began to wonder what had gone wrong. she noticed that many of the eggs showed problems with their chromosomes, and some had irregular amounts of genetic material, which can lead to miscarriages and birth defects in mammals. she learned that a lab assistant had mistakenly washed the plastic mouse cages and water bottles with a harsh soap, releasing bpa from the plastic. knowing that bpa is an endocrine disruptor, a chemical that can enter organisms and mimic hormones, hunt set out to discover whether it had adversely affected her mice.
