A student is observing a group of fry, or young fish, in a pond. Because the fry appear identical in shape, size, and color, the student concludes that they were the result of asexual reproduction. Is this conclusion necessarily correct? Use scientific reasoning to support your answer.

An exothermic reaction is conducted in an insulated calorimeter filled with water. the calorimeter is then sealed so that there is no heat exchanged between the contents of the container and the surrounding air. which of the following statements is true about the reaction?

Consider a culture medium on which only gram-positive organisms such as staphylococcus aureus colonies can grow due to an elevated nacl level. a yellow halo surrounds the growth, indicating the bacterium fermented a sugar in the medium, decreasing the ph as a result and changing the color of a ph indicator chemical. this type of medium would be referred to as a differential and enrichment culture.

High-pressure liquid chromatography (hplc) is a method used in chemistry and biochemistry to purify chemical substances. the pressures used in this procedure range from around 500 kilopascals (500,000 pa) to about 60,000 kpa (60,000,000 pa). it is often convenient to know the pressure in torr. if an hplc procedure is running at a pressure of 1.03×108 pa , what is its running pressure in torr?
