   leximast1 replied to BlessedMom's topic in Pre-Nursing

   That is exactly what I thought too. I can't really blame the teacher because the question was written by the author. Now that I asked her about I hope she goes over it in class. I feel good about the other questions. I do have to admit that after all...

4. Microbiology Spring 2007

   leximast1 replied to BlessedMom's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Ok, I asked my teacher and she said that E. coli can have one of 2 emzymes that would either change to a double bond in the saturated lipid or remove it and attach a new fatty acid making it a unsaturated lipid. So I guess they will change their memb...

   leximast1 replied to BlessedMom's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Ok, So maybe E.coli grown in cooler conditions would have a greater amount of unsaturated fats in its membrane? Does E. coli change the bonding or does it just select more unsaturated(vs saturated) fats from the medium it is growning in?. . . . . Oh...

   leximast1 replied to BlessedMom's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Did you have to do any of the questions at the end of chapter 2 (chemistry, Tortora)? I am stumped on critical thinking question #3. "What happens to the relative amount of unsaturated lipids in its plasma membrane when E.coli grown at 25c are grown ...

   leximast1 replied to marlonspoon's topic in Pre-Nursing

   We are using principles of anatomy & physiology by Tortora & Derrickson. It is HUGE! I am not sure my backpack is designed for this. I might have to breakdown and buy one of those book carriers with wheels.

10. Chemistry Help

    leximast1 replied to CTRNTOBE's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I am guessing because we are starting the acid & base chapter tomorrow but I think you can use the C1V1 = C2V2 equation. So (.250M)(15.62ml) = (.100M)(V2) V2 = 39ml Does that work? I could be way off. Lexie

11. Chemistry 2006/ 2007 Club***

    leximast1 replied to dreamBIG's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Hi Miranda, We are covering the same problems in my Chem 101 class. It believe you use C1,V1 = C2,V2 . So C1 = 4.5%, V1 = 300ml and C2 = 35% 4.5% x 300ml = 35% x V2 Divid both sides by 35% to get V2 by itself and V2 is 18.6 ml. So the ans...
